An Irish personal evangelistic site. I'm not representing a particular church, but it's broadly evangelical in tone. My aim is to cover topics I've encountered in discussions I've had over the years, mainly here in Ireland..
Off-the-top-of-my-head responses to questions that WordPress throws up every day.
The genie grants you a wish. What is it? View all responses Mentally, I’m pretty obsessed with memories of my earlier life. I’d like to be able to quietly travel to different periods of my life, both as an external observer or maybe to live in my younger body, but be aware that I’m only … Continue reading Teleporting Through Space and Time
What are five simple exercises to do at home? View all responses I’m by no means an expert on physical fitness. I’d just go to YouTube, and sometimes AI. I haven’t settled on what’s best, but I’m pleased that today’s prompt reminded me about home exercises. I need reminding 😀. I generally like walking outdoors, … Continue reading You’re Asking Me? 😀
Which relationship has taught you the most about yourself? View all responses I can’t think of how to answer this one. Maybe I’ll just waffle 😀.

I have a lot of admiration for entrepeneurs, but I don’t imagine that I’m the type 😀. One thing that comes to mind is something like a little coffee shop in a tourist area where you’re surrounded by secondhand books to browse or buy. That’s the sort of shop that would attract me. I remember … Continue reading Book Shop/Coffee Shop

How do you write what people actually want to read? View all responses I didn’t start this blog to promote myself as a writer. And I’m not a big reader either these days.

What’s the most spontaneous thing you’ve ever done? View all responses I’m a cautious, cowardly type 😀. I’m sure that we all do little spontaneous things every day – such as deciding to go for a walk around the block if it’s sunny. But I can’t think of anything that I’d classify as the most … Continue reading Me – Spontaneous? 😀
How do you make time for self-care? View all responses Perhaps not everyone would agree with me, but I don’t think that self-care is hugely demanding time-wise. I’m pretty much retired now, but even when I was busy in school, college, and work, I always had some time off. And while working, much self-care relates … Continue reading There’s Always Time for Self-Care
What’s a place you visited that felt like home? View all responses I grew up in Cork. I went to college in Limerick, and married and settled here in 1988.
