Big hug to the people of Norway

I still can't get over how one man could inflict so much pain on so many people.  The fact that he wrote a 1500 page manifesto detailing his point of view and plan of action blows my mind.   I don't want to spend any time talking about him or his cause we can all read about that in the news but I do want to show some images of how beautiful Norway is and the people who live there.  My heart is heavy for what they have endured.

Did you know that Norway:
1) Is known as the land of the midnight sun.
2) They have the second wealthiest population in the world.
3) Hydro power accounts for 99% of all power.
4) In Norway a college education is free.
5) It is the birthplace of black metal.

They are a beautiful and diverse population.
