Profile Information
- Please feel free to provide a short bio about yourself or the work of your organization (no more than 3 paragraphs)
- I have founded a Charity, Building Bridges for Peace. To advance the education of the public of the roots of war and violence and to build a more peaceful society by demonstrating how dialogue and mediation can resolve and transform conflict. I now work with Pat Magee was was a combatant, member of the IRA, and planted the bomb which killed my Dad. We now work work together to demonstrate the power of dialogue and reconciliation. for peace.
We share how we have become friends and how we see the humanity of each other. The journey has been challenging but is always transforming. During the last year we have spoken in Rwanda, Israel and Palestine and in Northern Ireland.
I have learnt that when we listen to the ';others' story there is the knowing I may have made the same choices and in that moment there is just pure understanding.

My Response to the killing of Osama bin Laden
Posted on May 2, 2011 at 8:55am 2 Comments 2 Likes
As someone who lost my Father to terrorism, I understand the response to hold one person responsible and to be jubilant when that person is killed. But I knew I would lose some of my humanity if I followed this route. I have found that healing and transformation happens when I understand the roots of the problem and address that non violently. otherwise the cycle of violence and revenge continues.
I have always seen I have a choice…

It was so inspiring to meet you and Archbishop Desmond Tutu to learn how the Forgiveness Project can make a bigger difference to heal millions of lives. My friend Dave will be in touch with you. Let us bring as many groups together to join forces. Here is one I was invited to join today to find way to mediate etc.

That would be great to meet up at St. James. We have so much to do to unleash mediation as our current systems are so flawed making Greedy Fat Cats richer.
Look forward to our meeting on Monday. Namaste.
