| Lisa says: " My husband Per-Eric and me went down to Gothenburg a couple of days in the summer 2006 to watch EM in athletics. Before the trip we contacted Inger, a friend from the time we studied down there, to get a place to stay during our visit in Gothenburg. She was so kind that she put her apartment to our disposal and went to stay in their summer cottage with her two sons. Inger, that by the way is an insightful and close to clairvoyant person, had lots of plants in her window ledges. In spite of her second sighted abilties the plants looked a bit dry and straggling which indicated that she didn't take that well care of them. Anyway, some of the plants looked a bit interesting and many of them had several shoots on the side (a way of surviving under difficult conditions) Therefore I took some shoots that I tought looked nice. I didnt ask for permission because I have heard that it means bad luck for the plants chances to grow and set roots. I cant explain the logic/sense in that, maybe there is some truth to it or its just an old superstition Inger is a swedish teacher but also writes childrens books and she has among other things written a book in which a dream I had in the 70s plays an important part." |
