Music: What Shall We Do Now / Empty Spaces (From the film The Wall) Performed by Pink Floyd
What shall we use to fill the empty spaces
Where waves of hunger roar?
Shall we set out across the sea of faces
In search of more and more applause?
Shall we buy a new guitar?
Shall we drive a more powerful car?
Shall we work straight through the night?
Shall we get into fights?
Leave the lights on?
Drop bombs?
Do tours of the east?
contract diseases?
Bury bones?
Break up homes?
Send flowers by phone?
Take to drink?
Go to shrinks?
Give up meat?
Rarely sleep?
Keep people as pets?
Train dogs?
Race rats?
Fill the attic with cash?
Bury treasure?
Store up leisure?
But never relax at all
With our backs to the wall.

Never have I seen the streets in Reykjavik as empty as this year. Not that I mind so much, but it did feel a bit unreal. The country that has so much revenue from tourism will have lost quite a bit of revenue this year. It was striking that so many souvenir shops had disappeared from the streets. I wasn't too happy about that because I was looking for a cap with a figure of Thor on it. Two years ago I bought a very nice one and I was very happy with it. But when I was home for two weeks, I had already lost it. Luckily I remembered where I bought it. Unfortunately the store was no longer there. After a long search I found a store where luckily they still had the same cap. When I said to look for a long time, the lady in the shop said that most of the shops were now closed due to lack of customers. And we don't buy souvenirs from Iceland ourselves, she said. I was glad I found what I was looking for.
The sky looked the way I love, the structures just perfect for my photographic taste, the place always thrilling... what more could I ask for?
Empty space in front, emptying worries and unecessary burdens. Peace of mind seems achievable in such places.
