Having read your recent pieces in the Irish Times I believe you relate to a wide audience which I am sure will grow in 2012. As I explore new possibilities I know that having true women friends is one of the greatest priviledges a girl can have. Best of luck in 2012.

Most of what I want to say has already been said by others. In short, whether through the written or spoken word, you are a gifted and inspirational communicator. Congratulations on all you achieved in 2011. I am certain it is just the tip of the iceberg. Wishing you every success in 2012 and beyond.

As Madeline Albright said, 'There is a special place in hell for women who don't help other women.' Perhaps because the default position of most women is to be wonderful and supportive. <br /><br />Please remember that you're just as inspirational and supportive and kind and giving and wise as the women you name-checked in this post. <br /><br />Nollaig na mBan is a wonderful way to celebrate that - and I love the fact that Irish women had a Day of the Woman long before International Women's Day was declared! Wise women, indeed. <br /><br />:)<br /><br />HxIn My Own Writehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03253011565485840630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7525848878710274126.post-5486822130384223982012-01-03T10:23:32.445+00:002012-01-03T10:23:32.445+00:00Great post Barbara - I hope 2012 brings great thin...Great post Barbara - I hope 2012 brings great things for you and wise women everywhere!Ellen Brickleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01184391430927483100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7525848878710274126.post-43900319815496075332012-01-03T01:42:19.311+00:002012-01-03T01:42:19.311+00:00a wonderful evocative and heart post.

A gifted writer and communicator you have 100% made your own luck through talent and hard work - those around you just help to grease the wheels (and kick the proverbial ass occasionally!) Thank you so much for the mention; it's all about synergy, strength through connections. I hope 2012 is ready for you! As Eleanor says, you will surpass yourself - onwards and upwards!

Your friendship and that of the rest of the fabulous WOA has been a source of such joy and fulfilment to me. I admire you and all you have achieved hugely. I also believe that in 2012 and beyond you’ll surpass yourself as they say round these parts. Here’s to a magnificent 2012.
