Friday 3rd of April 2026 A starting point. Bedrock, which two billion years ago was the root of the Svecofennides mountain range. I wrote the five questions on a postcard. They travel with me in my pocket. Maybe we could send postcards of Hope to each other? * The five questions at the heart of the project - Who are we? - Where did we come from? - Where are we going? - How should we live? - What is sacred? (Bertrand Russell - Rutger Bregman) https://www.lebanontrail.org/home https://kinetika.co.uk/portfolio/mountains-of-hope Photo: Bedrock (my feet on the root of the Svecofennides mountain range)

Day 5

Tuesday 7th of April 2026 Today, while walking, I pondered on the questions: Who are we? Where did we come from?  According to cosmology some of the matter on Earth originate as far back as the Big Bang (Enqvist, 2020). Enqvist calls this matter "stardust, ashes of dying stars spread into space." If matter on Earth is stardust settled down, living and co-creating life, here, on this planet, what does it make us? Are we stardust as well? Do we originate in the Big Bang or in an even earlier existence? Where do we come from? Who are we, actually? I notice that a couple of seemingly simple questions give rise to more questions. Philosophers say "we are questioners by nature; answers just get in the way." (Noë, 2023, 224). Some things tend to be more beautiful the more mysterious they are. Life is one such thing. Photo: Cosmic evolution pictured by a pole in a pedestrian bridge References Enqvist, Kari. 2020.

Day 6

 Wednesday 8th of April 2026 Who am I? Who are you? "Self then is both very big and very small. In each of us lives the history of man; in each, an awakening individual being. When we ask for self-fulfillment, we are asking for two kinds of experience. One is the experience of what it is to be a human being, i.e. an experience of our origins and history, our culture; and the other is the experience of myself, the mystery of myself, co-creator of history and culture. Who am I? Who are you? Who are we?" (Richards, 1973, 160-161) Photo: Self-portrait as a leaf in a pond Reference Richards, M.C. (Mary Caroline). 1973. The Crossing Point. Selected Talks and Writings.
