Photo was taken yesterday at Col√°iste Choilm, Ballincollig, Co.Cork (Irl)

Members of the victorious Cork All Ireland football team visited Col√°iste Choilm yesterday with the Sam Maguire Cup (Centre of Pic). No picture could capture the excitement, the energy and the colour of the occasion yesterday. It was worth the wait after 20 years!!

‘People change when they are given hope, when someone believes in them and gives them a task to do. Above all they change when they are loved. They come out of their shells and hidden energies are released in them.’ ~Flor McCarthy

If we could only realize the world of a difference our love can make in someone’s life. I don’t think we fully appreciate our goodness, how much our kindness matters and how our love transforms others. We do it and we simply move on. If we could just know the amount of hidden energies we release in others when we do our bit and our best, we’d be amazed. The hectic pace of life quickly moves us on. But God has actively been involved in these moments. They are sacred, good and so important. It would be a shame to take for granted the difference you will make in someone’s life today.
