Why did I return Malcome Gladwell's Revenge of the Tipping Point? How change has happened in the patterns of behaviours in Ireland over Christmas and how these impact the 'big systems' we feel are unchangeable? What to change on setting your New Year resolutions, goals intentions,Make up your own mind, Revenge of the Tipping Point book link:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/216857785-revenge-of-the-tipping-point

Do we need a new soundtrack to Christmas that allows us to stay a little more aligned with the present?    Do the traditions cause anxiety?  Maximise the grief and sadness? With Climate Change how many of us will have a white Christmas?  

If we focused on paradoxes and not labels we'd embrace difference ... diversity and just simple human complex nature I can't listen or read or accept any of the limiting views that are meant to be supporting this circus any longer.. how can more attention mean more challenges? It's because of the intention behind the attention.    

Why does every oppressive regime fear the writer? The creator? I reflect on what is being exposed in Syria, and what we have seen taking place in Gaza and the West Bank. Listen to the voices of Palestine:https://theunprecedentedtimes.net/articles/listen-to-the-voices-of-palestinenbspIncluded:The Young H.G.

The world has worked out how to manipulate Teens (and their parents) by the sheer fact that they are driven by outward influence - everyone is feeding off this need for their financial gain. From education to social media to big corporations and pop stars. Links:WTF - What Teens Feelhttps://www.patreon.com/purplepsychology/shop/w-hat-t-eens-f-eel-11363?source=storefrontNaom Chomsky - Manufacturing Consent Documentary https://youtu.be/BQXsPU25B60?si=cbxunNY-PgV3iQx6The Subtle KnifePhilip Pullmanhttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/41637836-the-subtle-knife?ac=1&from_search=true&qid=WaVr3qj8xN&rank=2

The talented souls who are sent to the equivalent of daycare and who have so much to offer our humanity are the ones I can't forget.  The system is happy because they are occupied and I know the solutions for our future have been lost. The course I have poured my soul into and all of the experiences I have learnt from over the last 15 years - all the success storieshttps://dr-naoise-oreilly.thinkific.com 

I keep asking this question - why? Why are teens moving as packs?  Seeking safety in numbers? Why carry knives? Fear then we ask the question why are they fearful? Then I look at the trajectory of what we have been presenting in real time to them online - with all the lies that make every civics and social studies class a complete lie.   

Who do we hold accountable for the distress we have seen on the streets? For the waves of online bullying? How do we decide who's children should die? How do we expect there to be a moral sanity as 'normal' in these contradictions?    

No one needs to struggle either returning to school or beginning school ... We need to change our perceptions of teaching 'normal'    Online Literacy Course - for Parents, Students and Resource teachers https://dr-naoise-oreilly.thinkific.com/courses/literacy_and_numeracy_programLabels are Limitshttps://drnaoiseoreilly.org/labels-are-limits/
