Israeli propaganda...a guide

Being Irish is not really defined by skin colour or culture or any of those things. Culture is such an abstract concept that it changes from year to year or decade do decade. We speak a Proto European language that originated in Turkey, our music is influenced by European Central Baroque, our staple foods originating in South America. Our DNA a veritable mix of centuries of conquests...this woman is Irish. The racism that she experienced is abhorrent and those instigating it are far from Irish..

Pastries in Copenhagen ❤️

"Roughly 60 percent of Americans cannot cover an unexpected $1,000 expense without borrowing. Not a calamity. A surprise. A busted transmission. A root canal. A single night in an emergency room. More than half the country is living within one ordinary piece of bad luck from a crisis. Not poverty, exactly. Something arguably more insidious: the permanent condition of almost fine. And almost fine, it turns out, has a very low tolerance for what comes next."

The Swing (French: L'Escarpolette), a famous oil painting completed in 1767 by Jean-Honoré Fragonard.

believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.-
Marilyn Monroe

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.-

Finally coming to terms with Fathers Day. I blow as a Dad. I get it. No, I'm not an evil, abusive Father, it's just that while all my intentions and thoughts have been out of love for my kids, my actions and behaviour never measured up.-
