Blessed are those | Gjermund in Palestine
https://gjermundgranlund.wordpress.com/2010/03/13/blessed-are-those
For people are indeed lines of poetry, but written in water. I have a dream. I had the chance during this stay to visit the place where Jesus is believed to have given the Sermon of the Mount. These words must be some of the most beautiful words in the entire Bible. Blessed are the poor in spirit,. For theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who morn,. For they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek,. For they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are the merciful,. For they shall obtain mercy.

Top Palestine | Gjermund in Palestine
https://gjermundgranlund.wordpress.com/2010/04/27/top-palestine
For people are indeed lines of poetry, but written in water. So one day among days (as they say in Arabic) when Lars and I bought tobacco for our argileh in “top smoker” and Marie gave me an avocado also labeled “top”, the project was born: Documenting as many “top” things as possible! And so it ends: thirty times “top” for the occupied Palestinian territories! But why do I keep on writing “the occupied Palestinian territories,” instead of the West Bank? One comment on “Top Palestine”. Ragna in Sri Lanka.

Gjermund in Palestine: Changing my blog!
http://gjermundgranlund.blogspot.com/2009/09/changing-my-blog.html
From September 1st to the end of March I'll be volunteering with Y-Global's youth exchange program GoCY which is a part of the Norwegian YWCA-YWCA (KFUK-KFUM), and is fundet by the Norwegian Fredskorpset. During these eight months I will live in Beit Sahour right outside Bethlehem at the West Bank. Saturday, September 12, 2009. Due to differences of opinion between blogspot and myself I've decided to change to another blog. My new address can be found at here. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Chain of events | Gjermund in Palestine
https://gjermundgranlund.wordpress.com/2010/03/16/chain-of-events
For people are indeed lines of poetry, but written in water. When the photographer is photographed. Last week many things happened in Israel and the occupied Palestinian territories that were covered in the international media. However there is often a tendency to overlook how the big political decisions affect the people in the streets. I will present to you one story. Joe Biden, the vise president of the United States of America. You can read about my own experience with participating in an non-violent...

https://srimoments.wordpress.com/2010/04/30/so-long-and-thanks-for-all-the-rice
Ragna in Sri Lanka. Serendipity is an island. So long, and thanks for all the rice. Around 30 hours ago, I was on a plane taking off into my last Sri Lankan sunrise.

From September 1st to the end of March I'll be volunteering with Y-Global's youth exchange program GoCY which is a part of the Norwegian YWCA-YWCA (KFUK-KFUM), and is fundet by the Norwegian Fredskorpset. During these eight months I will live in Beit Sahour right outside Bethlehem at the West Bank. Friday, September 4, 2009. The houses on the nearest hilltop belong to the area of Beit Sahour. And are inhabited by Palestinians that speak arabic. In the distance is the settlement Har Homa.
