Hell is a train stop

in Trøndelag, Norway

I was told hell can mean luck in some contexts. To be direct with you, Hell is a beautiful place. The train stop sits just outside of Værnes airport in Trøndelag. You don’t have to believe me; you can find out with some map service.

Hell is a train stop in Norway.

And just a stop, you can get off or keep riding. Hell is a sort of creation of our beings, a manifestation of fears. And yet, the peaceful serenity of Norway seems like a hell for many natives, and a heaven for folks such as me.

Peace, some people associated with death, and others freedom. So it’s not the actual concept that proves so hellish really, but the aggregate of associations.

And if you are willing and able to, make it a few stops past Hell anyway, you might find heaven. A place where the worst anchors of history set down roots and were shuffled off, because time and time again proves, nasi means national socialism; and it’s quite dangerous too….perhaps more dangerous than hell.
