@sinbach sorry for spreading fake news... 😂 The girls were not hitchhiking but hiking, and sleeping in tents (when they were attacked). The wrong word popped up in my head... mistakes you do when it's not your first language.

@TakeN I agree!

@sinbach I have watched 438 days. I agree with you that it's a great movie! In addition it is based on a true event. I think we Scandinavians are too naive about what's going on in our world. Even if we hear about evil things, we somehow don't think people can be mean to us since we are kind and nice. 😉 Thinking about the two Norwegian girls in their 20s who were hitchhiking in the Atlas mountains in Morocco a couple of years ago, and were beheaded, which was filmed as well. I suppose these two guys wouldn't have taken this risk if they had been more realistic. But who am I to judge... maybe the movie doesn't give all information needed. One of the men's parents are believers. They prayed all days for them, as did all believers in their village, and a candle burning day and night as a reminder. Thank God they were freed and justice won!

Lauren Daigle - Rescue

You are not hidden
There's never been a moment
You were forgotten
You are not hopeless
Though you have been broken
Your innocence stolen
I hear you whisper underneath your breath
I hear your SOS, your SOS
I will send out an army to find you
In the middle of the darkest night
It's true, I will rescue you
There is no distance
That cannot be covered
Over and over
You're not defenseless
I'll be your shelter
I'll be your armor
I hear you whisper underneath your breath
I hear your SOS, your SOS
I will send out an army to find you
In the middle of the darkest night
It's true, I will rescue you
I will never stop marching to reach you
In the middle of the hardest fight
It's true, I will rescue you

@biblexplorer yes indeed! Where do you live?

@StevenBerry yes, you've got rainy winters there. I live on the coast, and the climate is milder here than in the inland, so we use to have rain sometimes in January as well.

@bethany thank you! We have lots and lots of forests in this country. The snow makes it a wonderland.

Greetings from Vasa, Finland and my neighborhood! -10°C today.

@sinbach 🤣

@sinbach well said!

@sinbach wow!😭 ❤️ Has he explained the Finnish word "sisu" to you? He is Finnish sisu embodied!

@sinbach thank you for that article! I wish some of my friends and relatives would join DD (I have shared about it on FB a couple of times)... but I know only you here 😀 (even if I've got some new "friends"/followers here). It's easy to live in Scandinavia and only share food and animal pics, and call articles about censorship conspiracy theories. I have had a 4 week break from FB, and I don't miss FB (because I am upset with their censorship and non scientific so called "fact checks")... but I miss some updates from fam and friends, and some interesting articles, and discussions. I am glad that I follow people like you who don't live in their own bubble, but who has open eyes, and who is aware of what's going on around the globe - who sees the trends, years before the "bubble people" see what's going on... ;-)

@thetruthaboutcancer Great article! I didn't know about all the health benefits of peppermint oil that you mention here. I use this essential oil on my forehead to relieve tension headache and migraine. I started to get hormonal migraine at about 35. I have always been healthy and try to eat healthy and exercise so it's a mystery that I suddenly got it. I would like to cure it with natural methods because medical doctors have only described pain killers, but not helped me to find the root cause. (Like they always do...). Peppermint oil doesn't cure migraine but it's a much more healthy way to relieve the pain than to use painkillers.

@sinbach you use to say that DD is needed for us in West as well, because of the censorship on the big platforms. PragerU is a good example of this. They have been censored just because they are conservative. I like their 5 min high quality educational videos. Here they explain very well the difference between publisher and public forum. This was recorded a year ago, I discovered it today... don't know what happened with the lawsuit. Do anyone know? https://youtu.be/d6C6_NVj964

@thetruthaboutvaccines Thank you! I will sign up. GBY!

@sinbach I think I get it since you are American! 😀 The mindset of Scandinavians are somtimes the opposite of American... don't get into any argument with an extreme Swedish feminist. At least not about carrying a gun. Or anything else. 😂 😅

@thetruthaboutvaccines Great to find you on this platform! I've been following you for a while on FB. I appreciate what you are doing and that it's high quality stuff incl research. I have recently bought the book with the same name (haven't read it yet). Maybe it's getting harder to share things honestly and openly on the big platforms? Especially about vaccines? I will check out what you share about the covid vaxx... I live in Finland, where they have recently started the vaxx program from Pfizer. I feel so ambivalent and it's disturbing that media here don't ask any critical questions.
