I agree kerry! I think it is about time. They say “heroes are not honored in their own countries”. Well! Ireland has proven that statement wrong. Yes we share the same pride that they have 🙂

I can’t say I hear much of Enya now that I live in the United States, but I am so glad to read this post. And now I have “China Roses” playing in my head…

Thanks for the post. You should check out “And Winter came’ because it’s her winter themed album…December is just around the bend. I really appreciate the input.

I liked what she said about winter as the beginning and not the end of the story. Probably my favorite season. Can’t wait to get out and take photos in the snow.
