Not necessarily. I am Irish but born in US. I don't drink. I don't go to bars. It tis the music of my country men and women that I treasure.
I am older than most of you. I have but a few members of my family still alive.
We treasure our heritage. Never a bar for me. Nor a drink. Nor do I think with my disabilities I could even get around Ireland. now.
We were put into slavery. My grandparents came over at thirteen. I celebrate the people, the strength and all the humor and love I received from weekly Irish parties at our home. Me grandmother did moonshine to start. Me grandfather became a hotel manager and wore diamond pinky rings.
Its a glorious day for those of us whom have no relatives with this recall left. We celebrate the relatives we shall see once again in Heaven. And our pets. Wouldn't be heaven without our family and pets.
But the Irish had signs put uP: NO BLACKS, NO JEWS, NO DOGS, NO IRISH. Kinda tough to get a job. But me family did it.
To the vast majority of Eire persons, our country made us stronger. We fear very little now. And we shall have glorious card games and religious debates in Heaven.
I keep my love for Eire always.
*btw, the groups i follow whom are Ireland born, they have to work on St patricks day. It is when the Irish cottages are rented out. The tourist industry flourishes. The men whom make Irish jewelry are on TV that day. So, I bet many an Eire will celebrate another day.
But we are proud of Irish heritage.
But I am special unique and extraordinary anyway. *its a legal term of art*
