an Olive Branch is a sign of Peace ...

..... and today (like any other day) we need Peace.

Yesterday was a dark day for freedom of speech
and whatever the rights or wrongs of the situation,
the pen is always mightier than the sword.
(and maybe photography is also mightier than the sword)
So my blip today is of my beloved olive tree which continues to grow and thrive (despite its location in a very non-Mediterranean Dublin suburb)
