The #motherandbabyhomes report is an insult, to the victims and their #children children lost through #death and #adoption. Our #Government is denying the voices of women and their reality. They need to be #heard & #acknowledged It is time for a #truthcommission #Ibelieveyou

In August 2021 I plan to sail solo, non-stop, unassisted around the world from Ireland & back via the 5 great capes. I'll be using a sextant and paper charts as navigation tools. If successful, I'll be the first Irish person to complete a solo non-stop global circumnavigation.

Change only comes about when one person in the relationship becomes self-focused—which does not mean self-blaming. Rather, self-focus means that we put our energy into observing and changing our part in the relationship pattern that is bringing us anger and pain.

We need a full investigation into all institutions and agencies involved with historical, domestic adoption including TUSLA and AAI and a new agency to deal with these issues Roderic O’Gorman TD Micheál Martin #RepealTheSeal #AllVoicesHeard #illegaladoptions

Not only should there be an inquiry into illegal adoption but it should include all agencies/homes and institutions involved with historic, domestic adoption including AAI and TUSLA, we cannot continue on a piecemeal basis. Roderic O’Gorman TD

Don’t apologize with a grand flourish and then continue the very behaviors you are apologizing for, whether it’s failing to text when you’re coming home late, or not leaving your friend space to talk in the conversation. If you don’t “perform” your apology, it’s just empty words.

The courage to offer a wholehearted apology is at the heart of effective leadership, coupledom, parenting, friendship, personal integrity and what we call love. It’s hard to imagine what matters more than that.

None of us is immune from forming an inappropriate attachment. But if you’re in one now, use it as a laboratory to experiment with bold and courageous acts of change. There is always something to be learned by doing new steps in an old dance. (Cartoon: New Yorker magazine).

Had loads of DMs from people I don't know who have told me that I tweet too much about child sexual abuse within St John Ambulance. Happy to stop these tweets once St John Ambulance provide support for the victims and apologise for what happened. #BreakTheSilence

If you believe that forgiveness, like gratitude, is a universally healing emotion you may be inclined to encourage others to forgive. Your intentions may be good but you run the risk of victimizing the hurt person all over again and leaving them terribly alone and abandoned.

I recorded Ronnie Drew reciting this Brendan Kennelly poem one Sunday morning in a studio in a Dublin. We had a mic outside the window recording the city sounds at dawn. Beautiful whistle from @conorbyrne72 Clearing a Space for Brendan. 💚 youtu.be/W9iUwXkO73I via YouTube
