Consider how a flower blooms in the embrace of sunlight—its petals unfurling with an inner radiance once hidden in its buds.
So, too, does the human spirit unfurl in the warmth of love, revealing layers of brilliance that had previously lain dormant.
When cherished, our hearts sing a song of gratitude and contentment that casts a gentle glow, illuminating the world with the light of our true selves.

Ooh this one sings to me 💕

When you realize that true luxury is having time, slow mornings, and the freedom to choose what you want to do.

The best things in life aren't expensive. They're the moments when you can take your time, enjoy a quiet morning, and do what makes you happy.

It's about having the freedom to make your own choices and savor the simple pleasures. These are the real luxuries that make life truly rich and fulfilling.

This life is a gift, wrapped in each breath,
every heartbeat a reminder to cherish the now.
Why save the good china for a special day?
Why hoard the fine wine for a rainy tomorrow?

Today is a celebration.
Each sunrise, a fresh invitation to thrive.
Each sunset, a gentle promise that more wonders await.
This very moment - it's the most precious currency we possess.

Revel in the small pleasures, the fleeting joys.
The warmth of the sun on your face,
the laughter of loved ones in your ear.
These are the real treasures, the gems within reach.

Don't be afraid to shine brightly, to leave your mark.
Your presence on this earth is a miraculous thing.
Embrace it, amplify it, share it with the world.
You have been given an extraordinary gift - your life.

Live it out loud. Live it without restraint.
Savor the sweetness, even in the bitter moments.
For nothing lasts forever, not even our sorrows.
But the memories we create? They echo through eternity.

So throw open the doors, pull back the curtains.
This day, this hour, this very second -
it's worth celebrating.
You are worth celebrating.

Don't save anything for a special occasion.
Being alive is the most wondrous occasion of all.

If you water a seed of peace in your mind, peace will grow. When the seeds of happiness in you are watered, you will become happy. When the seed of anger in you is watered, you will become angry. The seeds that are watered frequently are those that will grow strong.

Love this one 💕

When you finally realise that joy

is less fireworks
more firefly

less orchestra
more birdsong

she will come back much more often

for joy will not fight
with the fast pace of this life
she is not in the shiny or the new

she breathes in the basic
shimmers in the simple
and dances in the daily to and fro

joy has been beckoning you
for many a year my friend
you were just too busy doing, to see

the very next time joy wraps
her quiet warmth around you
as the garden embraces your weary body
in its wildness

tip her a nod

you cannot force her to stay
but if you are a gracious host

joy comes back.

You Don't Just Lose Someone Once...

You lose them over and over,
sometimes in the same day.
When the loss, momentarily forgotten,
creeps up,
and attacks you from behind.
fresh waves of grief as the realisation hits home,
they are gone.
Again.

You don’t just lose someone once,
you lose them every time you open your eyes to a new dawn,
and as you awaken,
so does your memory,
so does the jolting bolt of lightning that rips into your heart,
they are gone.
Again.

Losing someone is a journey,
not a one-off.
There is no end to the loss,
there is only a learned skill on how to stay afloat,
when it washes over.
Be kind to those who are sailing this stormy sea,
they have a journey ahead of them,
and a daily shock to the system each time they realise,
they are gone,
Again.

You don’t just lose someone once,
you lose them every day,

for a lifetime.

STOP SCROLLING! WAKE UP! SILENCE IS NOT AN OPTION!

Phone the number 01-6194000 and get your message passed to the Taoiseach’s office to say we need to take swift action now.

Time has run out for the people of Gaza.

They have nowhere to go.

There are over 600,000 children there. 1.2 million souls are at risk of being wiped off the planet.

They need us to scream for them. To scream for this to stop.

I spoke to Sean in the Taoiseach’s office who said he would pass on my message. The call took less than a minute. You can do this too. We need to jam the phone lines with calls!

Follow up with an email to [email protected] and demand action.

Recall our ambassador from Israel. Expel the Israeli ambassador from Ireland. They have no interest in a peaceful solution. They only want to achieve their end goal of annihilation of the Palestinian people.

Doing nothing, saying nothing means that we approve.

Silence is giving permission to the oppressors to carry on killing civilians in whatever way they want. There is nothing that can ever persuade me that this is right. I don’t care about politics or religion. These are real people with real lives - not collateral.

Demand that our government DO MORE TO STOP THIS!

If it was you and your family, what would you do……

Pick up the phone and make the call 01-6194000. You could make a difference.

Please share and tag whoever you want in this.

Pick up the phone
