How are we meant to solve our differences if we don't TALK to each other.
It seems pretty simple and the thing to do to move forward. BUT others are not with my thoughts on this.
Pat Magee in the early 80's was an active member of the IRA. He killed 6 people while trying to assassinate former British Prime Minister Maggie Thatcher at the Grand Hotel in Brighton. Maggie survived the bombing!!!
Jo Berry is the daughter of one of Pat's victims. Think about the dynamics here for a second.
Jo & Pat are in an award winning documentary narrated by Michael Douglas. You can view the trailer here
Both Pat and Jo have embarked on a mission.. and that mission is a mission of PEACE & RECONCILIATION they are simply doing what other are not and that is talking. As Pat said in the film "How are you meant to overcome these problems if you don't talk"
I commend Jo for accepting Pat and I commend Pat in making this happen. They are an amazing dynamic couple who have overcome massive differences in life. Pat killed Jo's father and they are TALKING, this is absolutely amazing - they are making change in this world.
They are making a leap of faith to move forward and excel.
Have a read of this article in the Mail on Sunday online. I would love to know your thoughts on this. Do we stay focused on the past or do we move and look to the future.

This is absolutely amazing.
We should all take Pat and Jo's reconciliation as an example.
Without forgiveness, there's no future.
Yes I agree - you should be in the Peace Business
