St. Patrick's Day

always feels a bit bittersweet for me.

Irish, my family believes, is the biggest portion of our heritage.

We moved over from Ireland during the potato famine.

I certainly look Irish- and I love it when people point it out :)

I just wish that I could travel to Ireland- immerse myself in the culture and explore my roots.

I love thinking of how green it is over there

and hearing how friendly the people are.

*sigh* someday...
