Picture was taken in Fitzgerald’s Park, Cork (Irl)

These seagulls are flying in perfect harmony. It is a beautiful sight seeing these birds sweep in circles before heading off to another food destination. Not only does their white colour stand out but they also make plenty of noise in getting there!



‘If you don’t get everything you want, think of the things you don’t get that you don’t want.’ ~Oscar Wilde


Much has been written about prayer. The value and merits of it have been well documented. But it doesn’t always work for everyone and for some, prayer has left them disappointed. They asked for something and their prayer wasn’t heard or so it seems. But if you were to sum up all the great writings on prayer, all would say that every prayer is answered in some way. It may not be in the way we expected, it may not be straight away but every prayer has some benefit and is never wasted. That’s why prayer can be such a precious gift not just to you but to so many others as well. Every time we pray for someone, we extend our love, concern and support to them. We may not fully understand why or how but it’s enough to know that God is doing far more than we realise.
