Jenny B. Jones quote: "People everywhere, enjoying life, smiling, and just slowing down to let the world take care of itself for a few hours. <br />The feeling was contagious. Especially when I stepped into McPherson's Pub to grab a bite of the special and listen to some traditional Irish music. The fiddle made me want to dance with myself, and many did. The drum beat like my very own heart. And some little flute that looked no wider than a pencil reminded me of the Aran Islands floating not too far from Abbeyglen.<br />God was here tonight. In the strings of the guitar and the call of the singer's voice. I realize how often I overlook him back at home. <br />And I know I don't want to do that anymore.<br />The LORD will send His faithful love by day; His song will be with me in the night a prayer to the Gid of my life."

My fate is like those envelopes – sealed and tossed aside.
