lockett: Today, the 5th of January is the anniversary of both my Dad and my Mum who both passed on this date. My Dad in 1992 and Mum in 2007. I am honoured to have been part of their lives. Go n-éirí an bóthar leat. Go raibh an chóir ghaoithe i gcónaí leat. Go dtaitní an ghrian go bog blath ar do chlar éadain, go gcuire an bhaisteach go bog mín ar do ghoirt. Agus go gcasfar le chéile sinn arís, go gcoinní Dia i mbosa a laimhe thú. An often misquoted Irish blessing when someone has passed away is "May your road succeed..." Many know it as "May the road rise up to meet you" May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face, the rain fall soft upon your fields. And until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of his hand." |

lockett: Hi one and all! Well, a little bit about me. I live in lovely Northern Ireland and have done all my life. I live about 20 mins outside of Belfast right on the coast where Belfast Lough meets the Irish Sea. It is beautiful. I grew up surrounded by my family who were wonderful though I sadly lost my Dad at 19 and my Mum several years later. I have two wonderful girls who I cherish. My eldest daughter is learning disabled and is nearly 20. She loves drama and music and has battled through so many difficulties and come out the other side. My other daughter is 7 and is an '0ld Soul' as we would say. She has definitely been here before! I am divorced and while it would be lovely to have romance in my life I am more than content with what I have. I think a lot of my writing reflects experiences that I have had, as many other people will do as well. I am trying now however to write outside my comfort zone and feel others experiences and emotions and embody that in my writing. We shall see how that turns out!! Anyway, thank you for taking the time to visit my profile. Love and peace to you all. Lockett |

You sure are from Ireland. A red-headed beauty indeed. A fine representative of the emerald isle. I hope you enjoy it here on Fanstory. I am sure you will begin to feel at home right away. There are many fine writers here, who might even become your friends. I will be looking forward to reading your beautiful poems and such. And to God be all the glory. Razz - | ||
