I enjoyed some relaxing leisure time with colleagues and students on our yearly outing recently. Our trip included time at The Irish National Stud & Japanese Garden. This display of flags represents all the countries that have completed The Irish National Stud Breeding Course. Can you spot your flag here? If you can or if you can’t, please say hello and tell me where you are on the globe? Better still tell me something interesting about where you live?My geography is improving daily thanks to the little map on WP Stats!

A week or two ago I had a lone visitor from Ireland, I wrote about it Here
Today I’d like to welcome readers from the United States! Whether I have only one visitor or many, I’m always happy to have company. If you decide to visit, be sure and leave me a message to say hello!

Good morning Ireland!
Whether it’s one view or one hundred, your company is always welcome…
“Good company in a journey makes the way seem shorter.”

I wish you a day filled with good company; your own, and that of others!

It’s one of those days…
I’m normally quite risk adverse but it’s one of those days…
Where I’m just going to call it… on the subject of ‘likes‘ and ‘follows‘…
If you just ‘follow’ my blog, I’m not going to follow you back. I’m not interested in numbers…
And let’s just call it again…
If you ‘like’ one post from my blog, and it’s a post I re-blogged, because I liked it enough to want to share it some more; and then you ‘follow’ me, I’m still not going to ‘follow’ you back because although I’m glad you liked my re-blog, you still don’t know anything about me and I’m not interested in building numbers, I’m interested in building connections with real people, so please…
Read at least one of my posts, you don’t even have to ‘like’ it, if you don’t think it warrants a ‘like’ but talk to me… so I can talk to you,
I’m Irish… I love people and good conversation. Tell me what you think of my post. Maybe, even though I know you are busy, read two posts of mine and leave me some feedback. Tell me what struck you about my post, first anything positive and then a little, gentle constructive feedback; so I can try to improve how I build my words and how I build a community that really cares.
Thank you for reading. What’s your opinion on ‘follows’ and ‘likes?’

I think I lost my appetite when WordPress stopped their Daily Prompt but now I feel my appetite returning thanks to Dee’s Daily Prompt at Thriving not Surviving! I’m looking forward to savouring some new words and satisfying my appetite!

Can anybody tell me, in plain english, how to ‘pingback’ to a post? Have I done it correctly by putting a link to the post as above?
Life is one long riddle…or need it be?
R Ruminating, if it’s the negative sort, will hold you back,
I Initiative & Imagination propels you forward,
D Doubting yourself merely
D Damages your Initiative & Imagination
L Love yourself, as you are,
E Enlightenment follows and solves your puzzle!
Much love,
