Catastrophes, wars, terrorism, ecological disasters, deadly diseases,
poverty ....
The list of tragedies - both personal and public - is endless. Every
day and hour media, politicians, experts - and charlatans - bring us
a never ending barrage of bad things. No wonder that many people feel
depressed and weary.
This blog tries - in a modest and personal way - to contribute to a more
balanced view. After all, there is so much to appreciate and
enjoy in life ...

A peaceful bunker hideaway in southern Sweden
There are over 1000 bunkers and other types of protection in theSkåne (Scania) Line- a 500 kilometer long line of light fortifications erected during World War II around the coast of southern Sweden. During the cold war the line was further strengthened. Almost all of the fortifications are still standing, although emptied of military equipment. A number of the fortifications are now managed by theMilitary Preparedness Museum ("Beredskapsmuseet") and have been undergoing an extensive renovation.
This particular bunker, which I found on the shore of the Kulla-Gunnarstorp Nature Reserve, has not been renovated by the Preparedness Museum. Instead some enterprising person has converted a corner of it into a peaceful hideaway, with a nice little bench and an open grill.
And the text on the "wall decoration" is something for all of us to remember: "Small, small words of love, said every day will fill your home with sunshine and enjoyment"
