Our Town/My Town

“Now there are some things we all know, but we don’t take em out and look at em very often. We all know that something is eternal and it ain’t houses, and it ain’t names and it ain’t earth, and it ain’t even the stars .... Everybody knows in their bones that something is eternal, and that has to do with human beings. There’s something way down deep that’s eternal about every human being”. Our Town (Thornton Wilder)



The World and her Husband were down in the People’s Park in Dun Laoghaire today. I had delicious vegetarian food from Karuna’s Kitchen and a pleasant walk around the market. I resisted buying a little piece of jewellery but I couldn’t pass the bookstand and made only one purchase.

The extra shows a very determined little boy who was running very fast towards the fountain despite his parents shouting at him to stop.

Sundays are for browsing, strolling, having the chat, eating tasty food, maybe buying one pair of ear-rings and generally enjoying where you live and making the best of it.
