Titta in i dessa ögon.
Se sorgen, smärtan, allvaret men också den lysande styrkan, kraften. Viljan att leva vidare för sina barns skull, men också för sin egen.
Vackra, fina, ljusa, starka Emma!
Men jag vill också berätta om två mycket sorgsna ögon som jag mött flera gånger – Nicklas ögon! Pappan, vars barn nu är borta för alltid – men som naturligtvis för alltid lever kvar. En pappa som sörjer precis lika mycket men som på något vis kommit i skymundan. Tänk också på Nicklas.

På något vis har melodier under gårdagen letat sig fram till mig. Sångtexter med en innebörd som berör mitt innersta. Trots att de är långa, några av de jag valt ut, vill jag förmedla dom här.
Här kommer texterna:
You tell me
(Paul McCartney)
When was that summer when the skies were blue?
The bright red cardinal flew down from it’s tree?
You tell me
When was that summer when it never rained?
The air was buzzin’ with the sweet old honeybee
Let’s see
You tell me
Were we there?
Was it real?
Is it truly how I feel?
Maybe
You tell me
Were we there?
Is it true?
Was I really there with you?
Let’s see
You tell me
When was that summer of a dozen words?
The butterflies and hummingbirds flew free
Let’s see
You tell me
Let’s see
You tell me

I can still recall our last summer
I still see it all
Walks along the seine, laughing in the rain
Our last summer
Memories that remain
I can still recall our last summer
I still see it all
In the tourist jam, round the notre dame
Our last summer
Walking hand in hand
Paris restaurants
Our last summer
Morning croissants
Living for the day, worries far away

Bob Dylan
How many roads must a man walk down before you can call him a
Man ? yes n how many seas must a white dove sail before she
Sleeps in the sand yes n ahow many times must the cannon
Balls fly before theyre forever banned
The answer my friend is blowing in the wind the answer is
Blowing in the wind
How many times must a man look up before he can see the sky
Yes n how many ears must one man have before he can hear
People cry yes n how many deaths will it take till he know
That too many people have died
The answer my friend is blowing in the wind the answer is
Blowing in the wind
How many years can a mountain exist before its washed to the
Sea yes n how many years can some people exist before
Theyre allowed to be free? yes n how many times can a man
Turn his head pretending he just didnt see?
The answer my friend is blowing in the wind the answer is
Blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind
