Mother
Is this a dream or is it real
How can i tell which it may be?
O please let this be just a dream
For such a thing should not be seen
Is this what we have done?
Or is this the hell that awaits us
If we don’t cooperate
To save our mother from the greed
The greed from the plague
That is human kind
Like locusts we consume resources
Not listening to warnings she shows us
Storms, floods the ozone layer
Is there anyone left that even cares?
Won’t be long if we don’t change
That catastrophe will be apron us
Global warming, 
Pathogens,
Ecosystem collapse
Is it too late?
Our mother cannot sustain us

Our Earth, our mother, is suffering from the consequences of our actions, and if we do not act soon, the consequences will be catastrophic. Human greed has caused us to consume resources at a rate that is unsustainable, and we have not been attentive to the warnings our planet has been giving us. Climate change, ecosystem collapse, and the spread of pathogens are all symptoms of the damage we have done.

It is essential that we cooperate to save our planet. We must change our ways and act responsibly towards our environment. Simple actions, such as reducing our carbon footprint, minimizing waste, and conserving energy, can make a significant difference. We must educate ourselves and others on the importance of sustainability and the impact our actions have on the planet.

It is not too late to make a change, but time is running out. We must act now to prevent the catastrophe that awaits us. We have a responsibility to ensure that our planet can sustain us and future generations. It is time for us to listen to our planet and take action to save it.

Butterflies: Messengers of Irish Folklore

By Patrick Conlan
According to Irish folklore, butterflies are said to move between worlds and bring messages and warnings. They are said to be souls, waiting to be reborn on earth. This is perhaps why butterflies still play such a prominent role in material culture today, with a wide range of clothes, stationary, and other good coming decorated with butterflies. Butterflies with dark wings were said to warn of bad news such as an attack or failed crop, while white and yellow butterflies were told to bring good news such as a birth or success. In Irish mythology and folklore, butterflies have a special significance. According to Irish tradition, butterflies are believed to move between worlds and bring messages and warnings. They are considered to be souls waiting to be reborn on earth. This belief has contributed to the continued popularity of butterflies in modern-day material culture. Butterflies can be seen on a wide range of clothes, stationery, and other goods. Interestingly, the colour of the but...

Discovering Anamchara The Celtic Soul mate

By Patrick Conlan
  Anamchara Soul mate In the Celtic tradition, there is a beautiful understanding of love and friendship. One of the fascinating ideas here is the idea of soul-love; the old Gaelic term for this is anamchara. Anam is the Gaelic word for soul and chara is the word for friend.So anamchara in the Celtic world was the “soul friend.”With the anamchara you could share your inner-most self, your mind and your heart. This friendship was an act of recognition and belonging. When you had an anamchara, your friendship cut across all convention, morality, and category. You were joined in an ancient and eternal way with the “friend of your soul.”The Celtic understanding did not set limitations of space or time on the soul. There is no cage for the soul. The soul is a divine light that flows into you and into your Other. Learn More
