    Thankfully the weather is mild….a man, in similar circumstances, was found alive and well yesterday in Galway having been missing for 2 nights. He was located in a wooded area not far from where he had gone missing.

    For all the people who red-thumbed this (who I assume are part of the anti-religion crusade)

    Whether or not praying actually works, it makes the person doing it feel like they’re helping. For family or friends who have exhausted all the options, it reassures them and makes them feel slightly safer knowing that they are appealing to a higher power (or that other people are doing that too, and keeping their loved one in their thoughts)

    Why red thumb what is basically good will? I don’t believe in a god but if someone wants to pray for me, I’d be happy that they considered me.

    Very sad and must be so scary for the woman. Can’t imagine how she or her family feel. She is in my thoughts and prayers.
