About Me

"It's the possiblity of having a dream come true that makes life interesting..." The Alchemist, Paulo Coelho "...all endings are also beginnings. We just don't know it at the time." "Strangers... are just family you have yet to come to know" The Five People You Meet In Heaven, Mitch Albom
You're 80% Irish
Congratulations, you're a shining example of an Irish lass (or lad).
There's hardly anyone more Irish than you! How Irish Are You?"If I ever managed to get to heaven after everything I'd done, I hoped I would get just a few minutes for a private conference with God. I wanted to say, 'Look, I know you meant well creating the world and all, but how could you let it get away from you like this? How come you couldnt' stick with your original idea of paradise?' People's lives were a mess." The Secret Life of Bees, Sue Monk Kidd
