I constantly live in a world where things are mixed. We have our past, our present and future - everything is blended into a smoothie. It's all a mixture: you are divided between these times - it's all inside you.
If you were hit by a bomb, you died instantly and entered paradise. In Denmark, no one helps each other and you die every day slowly from small bombs that just make one more disabled and sad.
You Danes have common problems you can solve. You just make a plan. But I do not make plans. I can only put out the fires that are constantly being lit in my life. I can not choose which problems I want to solve. They choose me.
