What would you leave on the tree to be free?

April 14, 2017 Karen Huber

Last week I wrote for VOX about a Good News Crisis in Ireland. The article didn't start out that way; I just wanted to cover the craziness of our local housing market. But as I watched the doc, listened to the news, and chatted with friends, it seemed like bad news was...

Music Like Backseat Prayers

June 20, 2016 Karen Huber

I used to sing in the car to myself, to my babies, to the sky. In our “before Ireland” days, I’d wake up with the sun to drive my husband to work. Then I’d sit in the parking lot on sweaty afternoons waiting for him to clock out with a hungry, fussy baby passing minutes in the backseat.

The Year of Submit

December 29, 2015 Karen Huber

So you're probably wondering what happened to my great big one word of 2015. Well, you'll have to pop over to Velvet Ashes to read all about it, but here's the bottom line:

 

We can fit any word we want into the story of our life. This year could’ve been the year of Grief, the year of Rejection, the year of Income Shortfall, the year of Eczema. And any word we choose can dissipate with the first thaw of Spring. I regret to inform you that in choosing any One Word, you will be humbled. We can start strong and trip over our good intentions, hiding those words away with all our forgotten plans or crushed hopes. I may have done that, too, this year.

When we are cloaked in shadows

June 3, 2015 Karen Huber

I love the smokestacks in the port of Dublin. I've heard they're disused, unneeded, but the general population (or perhaps, the more traditional, sentimental of the population) fight against their potential destruction. I can see why they would fight it.

A Noble Irish heroine and just one happy ending

May 8, 2015 Karen Huber

On Facebook today, I saw another blogger share the trailer of this film, marking it with the hashtag: #ad. This made me cringe. I don't mean to share this film as an ad; I'm under no obligation to do so. In fact, I ignored it for a long while because I didn't really want to watch this film. To be honest, I hate living in a world where we must watch documentaries and films of child poverty, abuse and sex trafficking to believe it's real and under our noses. 

But my love for an Irish heroine and just this one happy ending won out...
