Last night...

...or early morning... I'm not sure. Anyways, it was about 4:30 am. I was driving the grandparents to the airport. The sky was clear, the stars were out. The northern lights were dancing around (o yeah! First of the season!) as the day broke over the mountains in the north. Picture-perfect. The blue ocean reflecting the colours of the sky, the mountains appearing as black profiles, the skyline in the north showing all colours from red to pink to yellow to blue, further south the sky was still black with twinkling stars and northern lights... it was like magic! So, even though I was physically exhausted, I was mentally replenished :) I then went back to bed and slept almost non-stop until 11! The dogs were obviously tired, too :) otherwise, they would have kicked my butt out of bed hours ago! I was kinda counting on them to wake me at a less obscene hour. Never mind.

I'm watching this true-story movie about 3 aborigines girls who trecked through the outback, for 1100 miles. They were running away from some horrid, english state-run institution for aborigine children, and they made it home! They were "halfcasts" as said in the movie. Nasty! "The bush-natives have to be protected against themselves. If only they would understand what we are trying to do for them.", said the Chief Protector of The Aborigines. Until 1970, children were forcibly removed from their families. Horrid horrid horrid!!! It makes me sick to the stomach to imagine what went on in Australia (and still goes on in some parts of the world).

Why are humans so evil?!

Too heavy. Must go outside.
