Tomorrow, two weeks of holiday on the Danish North Sea coast will be over, and 'normal' everyday life will return. But what is normal these days? Armed conflicts are on the rise in the world, fascist parties are experiencing a high all over Europe, and we are all also grappling with a fatal climate change. I can hardly think straight, my children constantly on my mind.
In the face of these circumstances, it feels wrong to pretend that everything is fine. As I contemplate the prospect of returning to work on Monday, my stomach turns. I've noticed how I've been increasingly isolating myself for months, yearning for solitude to find some inner peace.
These tumultuous times have left me wondering about the state of the world and my place in it. It's not easy to carry on as if everything is business as usual. In the midst of these challenges, it's important to reflect and consider how we can make a positive impact on the world around us.
Wish me luck in finding a way to make this work for me.
