Moss, Mosseskogen, in Norway, has a fairytale landscape with a rich wildlife. And like many other places in Norway, people live in harmony with the nature.

Sometimes people I met on my way in Iran in July 2004, who asked me about my belief and religion. I replied by referring to a quote from the Persian mystic poet Rumi.

It was the group`s second album, where they combine old-world elements with new age and radio-friendly dance-pop. Both the poem and music made a tremendous impression on me.
