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.
That’s a very easy question for me to answer. I waste time when I ruminate on things I shouldn’t think about. I can’t say that I’ve managed to solve that problem, but there are ways to avoid it. I can focus on what I really do need to address. I can keep my mind busy. … Continue reading Worry
I was a very fussy eater as a young child. I didn’t like meat or vegetables. I do fondly remember desserts, particularly apple tart and red jelly and ice cream. In the US, I’m told that jelly is known as Jell-O. So perhaps I should say Jell-O and ice cream 😀. One of my early … Continue reading Jelly and Ice Cream
I could say Jesus, because he is a historical figure, but if I asked someone such a question, I’d learn little about them if I knew they were already Christians. I’d be more interested in who else they admire. And Jesus isn’t just another historical figure. He divides history into BC and AD. But let’s … Continue reading Patrick

The star had been Ireland’s representative in the Eurovision song contest for that year, 1971. Her name was … Continue reading Angela Farrell

What’s my favorite thing about me? I can wiggle my eyes 😀. I’ve only ever met one other person who could do that. I’m upset that I’ve never got the credit I deserved for doing it 🧐. There just doesn’t seem to be much of a demand for eye wigglers 😫, at least not in … Continue reading The Best Thing About Me
The retirement age in Ireland used to be 65. Recently, they pushed it up to 68 and thankfully brought it back down to 66 after much protest. I don’t know why Paul McCartney chose 64. The funny thing is, he’s now nearly 20 years older and he still hasn’t retired😀. I went to a Paul … Continue reading When I’m 64
Well, apart from my Bible and household utensils, I think of my beloved Squire Stratocaster electric guitar.
My favorite moments are when something that others might take little notice of hits me in a special way.Two things that I can think of is when a baby smiles at me, such as when my youngest daughter first smiled at me, and when I’m in a beautiful place, such as ladies view, Killarney: It’s … Continue reading Moments Like These
So, what notable things happened today? Firstly, I’m in the habit of answering the Daily writing prompt when I wake in the morning. So, thankfully, so far, nothing notable has happened at a personal level today, 13 June 2025. At least nothing unusual has happened so far. Personality wise, especially as I grow older, I … Continue reading Today
