  • Takk for at du var en raus og inkluderende konge for HELE befolkninga. Vi glemmer aldri tårene i forbindelse med 22. juli-terroren, ei heller den flotte talen i 2016. 🌹♥️

  • Remembering HM King Harald V of Norway, Through every season you filled my life with your light but everywhere you went you shined fourth your light from the Summerland Heavens you were always welcoming to every community and a true guardian of Mother Nature. It was through every season you shined fourth your light you brought hope to every season of my life and throughout the very darkest of times in this world and when all things dimmed there was always a new side of hope that you instilled into my life I could see the sun rise and that was hope and more because the sun is very special but not only a sun but a very beautiful rainbow yet very rare shining fourth rays of love and light and a very bright and very unique star glowing brightly reminding me that even in the darkest of times Love surpasses all darkness and King Harald was this very special star glowing brightly because when all light seemed to dim you were always here bringing light through every season of every year. But when I mention the sun and the very special rainbow it isn’t just any sun or rainbow it was his spirit shining fourth love through very dark times to remind me to persevere always his spirits enveloped my life with love. And through every season I will carry you in my heart forever. Just like when I see the gaze of Mandy she instills that very moment of what was lost and a true understanding of the pain in life and as she looks outward she shares an understanding a deep love like Mary.
