Tides roll in, roll out,
waves recall not where they’ve been
but to where they’re bound.

Thank you Nancy. Interesting day today for Ireland and it’s incoming election results mixed with a lot of beach walks over the past few weeks in a country I have just, happily, return to.
Jane Dougherty
Appropriate poem for today. Let’s hope the changes are good ones.

It’s a very interesting day for Ireland with a reflection of letting go and looking forward.

Most encouraging has been the low (microscopic) vote for the alt-right.

Oh that’s been extremely encouraging indeed, there are some interesting and archaic beliefs out there, though we have a long, long way to go in terms of direct provision centers around the country. Hopefully we don’t forget how many countries we set sail for when Ireland had nothing to offer 🙏
Jane Dougherty
That seems to have been said quite a lot. After all, the doors won’t be closed to English immigrants either 🙂
