Photo was taken last Sunday in Altamount, Millstreet, Co.Cork (Irl)

The leaves have stayed on much longer this year. The beautiful golden colours splashed across our countryside, really stand out at the moment.

‘So who are the needy? I am. You are. Everyone is. Today, I may help you but tomorrow I may need you to help me.’ ~The Universe

One of the biggest negatives to be found in society today is how the individual is forgotten. Surely we are more than just a number or a statistic or a face in the crowd. We have lost the ability to connect with one person. Inevitably this means a loss of community or connection to a place. To lose all of these is to lose something great and precious. We all have needs and concerns. No one person has it all worked out. No one person is fully safe or secure. No one is shielded from the knocks of life. Our greatest privilege is to connect with someone in our lives today. No matter how small that connection may be it is uniquely precious. The chance may never come again. When we continue making many connections great things begin to happen. God is always the link in each of these connections.
