<<First Name>>
The re-imagination of Saint Brigid is again underway as another generation gleans the sparse facts in search of inspiration. As we listen beyond certainties and ideologies, we might discern what attracts us in the character, imagination and resilience that emerge from the stories we know.
Surely Brigid would want us to do less looking back for facts and urge us more to look around with imagination, to find delight in how life is to be celebrated just where we are.
What we extol in Brigid says something about her but much about what is of value to us.
Gabhamís molta Bríde, iníon le gach glúin í; go spreagfaidh sí léargas ionainn!
