Something other than Global Economic Melt Down

Morning folks and a happy Monday to you.

Sometimes I think it’s just as important to focus on the Local than it is to worry about the Global.

We need to be reminded that life goes on … and there’s no better example than the brightness of children.

On Saturday Maeve Hamill and I visited our local Art Gallery.

It was showing the work of school children from many schools around Ballinamore … ages from zero (I couldn’t find the art work of the preborns!) to 13.

And in all the art work … there wasn’t one that portrayed doom and gloom.

The children drew what they enjoyed:

• their homes
• family & friends
• farms
• landscape
• nature
• animals
• farm equipment

A lesson to us all.

Here is Maeve in front of her lovely drawing.

And here’s James Hamill’s great picture of a tractor.

Here is the large view of all the walls covered in the childrens colour and imagination … really delightful.

A few that Maeve and I picked out … love the stuff done by the really really little kids.

Have a great week … hope it’s full of more sunshine than darkness.
