Transcript
00:00I had some moments today where I could imagine doing the skiing, cross the finish line, and
00:08to have this moment actually kind of for myself, to connect with the people who can't be here.
00:17Also the people who are here, but I don't get to see them immediately, and for my family
00:23who is back home, you know, for my dad who didn't get to see this.
00:28And this was a moment I have dreamed about.
00:31I've also been very scared of this moment.
00:34Everything in life that you do after you lose someone you love is like a new experience.
00:41It's like being born again.
00:43And I still have so many moments where I resist this.
00:50I don't want to be in life without my dad.
00:58And maybe today was the first time that I could actually accept this, like reality.
01:13And instead of thinking I would be going in this moment without him, to take the moment
01:25to be silent with him.
