“We‘ve been clever and stupid, principled and corrupt. We can be kind and cruel, guilty of dopey optimism and chronic fatalism. We‘re friendly, but near impossible to get to know. We‘re proud to be Irish but often crippled with self-loathing. We think we‘re great, but not really.
We find ourselves fascinating.
Of course we do. We‘re a paradox.”
Zelma Totally unrelated but I am pretty sure have the same wedding ring. 😁 6y
Suet624 Love this. It fits me to a T. 6y
Libby1 Wow, @Zelma ! This is actually a cheaper replacement to my original ring. I have too much of a #BookwormPhysique at the moment to wear my original! 😂🙄😬 6y
Libby1 Really, @Suet624 ? Interesting. I moved to Northern Ireland many years ago, and while certainly culturally different in some ways, I find definite similarities. 😊 6y
