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..
Well, I don’t do much cooking or baking to start with, and when I do, I’m not very ambitious. But one memory that looms large was tomato and orange soup about 37 years ago. Nothing went wrong but it was just a bad decision to make it in the first place. It just wasn’t nice … Continue reading Tomato and Orange Soup
I wish that I had been more empathetic earlier in life. For example, though most of my physical or mental health issues have been minor, they have made me more sympathetic to those who suffer. And I think that everyone suffers to some degree. I sometimes think of this section from Baker Street: You used … Continue reading Love and Understanding
My mother had a lot of trouble with me as a child because I thought meat was a bit gross, and I didn’t like vegetables 😀. As soon as I heard about poison, I would wonder if something that had a strong taste was poison. I remember hating marmalade, and it took a lot to … Continue reading Food Glorious Food
I walk every day. I find walking quite relaxing. Recently I was reminded that it’s good to push yourself and walk so fast that you feel a little uncomfortable for 20 minutes every day. I’ve started to do that, and I find it quite exhilarating. Maybe it’s nice to have a bit of both types. … Continue reading Walk Right Now!
I see myself as a leader, but I’m not sure if others do. I was hoping to be King of England, but Prince Charles got in before me. And Prince William seems to edging me out now. They don’t like me coz I’m Irish 😤. And I missed out on being Pope on seven occasions. … Continue reading Yes, I’m the King of the World!
I don’t really have a favorite word, but it set me thinking about words. Is the question about the words themselves or what they represent? And some words, such as Jesus, are so embedded in my life that I don’t think of them as words. I asked Microsoft Copilot about favourite words, and it gave … Continue reading Nocturne
Today’s prompt brought to mind one of my favourite cartoons from around 1998, Pinky and the Brain – where every episode began with a little mouse declaring that he wanted to take over the world 😀. I do hope to take over the world, but I only have 189 subscribers so far. I need around … Continue reading Same Thing I Do Every Evening – Try to Take Over the World!
I wasn’t sure how to answer this one. I’m a bit of an introvert. If I don’t have tight relationships with most people, bad personality traits don’t bother me much. They might even be a source of amusement 😀. But I have had some bad experiences with difficult people from time to time. I myself … Continue reading Guilt-Tripping
My ideal week would probably be revisiting my past. Then, I’d come back to the future. For example, I could go back to September 8th for 1965, 1975, 1985, 1995, 2005, 2015, and …. well, I’m already in 2025, so I have a day to spare 😀. Maybe, I’d go back to September 1982, when … Continue reading Back to the Future
I’m not really big into watching athletics. The only person who comes to mind is Eric Liddell, whose story featured in Chariots of Fire. He was planning to be a missionary in China at the time of the 1924 Olympics. On principle, he refused to run on a Sunday because of his strict views of … Continue reading Eric Liddell
