Hi, my name is Sean Garvey and I live in Galway city in the west of Ireland. A large part of my life was spent as a single person serving the needs of both young and older people in my community. More than thirty years ago I married Barbara and we have two grown men, Shane who is twenty nine years of age and Brian who is twenty four years of age. Shane works as a Data Analyst in London and Brian is due to return to college in September. Fifteen years ago I released my very first CD title ‘Wellsprings Of Creativity’ to wide acclaim. The same work included fourteen of my personal poems allied to a specially selected track of classical music in each instance.
In all I have created five separate CD’s which mostly concentrated on documenting the life stories of four Galway characters and introducing the same format of complimenting each separate story with a specially selected piece of music. The Galway characters included Chick Gillen in both English and Irish, Michael Lynskey, The King Of The Claddagh and finally Tommy Holohan. All CD’s were well received and brought much-needed entertainment throughout Galway city, county and further afield.
My new creative venture involves creating a Youtube Clip of between thirty and forty five minutes. My real ambition is to reach a global audience and to provide teaching, insight and entertainment. The content of the same clip is largely faith-based and showcasing several aspects of the catholic religion that will include my own voiceover in at least twelve different topics as well as forty three video images that will compliment each topic. This Clip will be completed in a professional sound and recording studio and then uploaded the same Clip to Youtube. I am hoping to raise €5,000 that will offset the cost of the project above and this same cost will include online promotion and advertising costs. The catholic faith has diminished in Ireland to a great degree and my ambition is to give a much-needed boost to ailing minds, hearts and souls across this island and to return it to its former glory. Here is just a snippet of my work on this project:
A few short years passed and I read this enlightening piece in The Catholic Furrow Magazine: Unquestioning faith locks the door, questioning faith unlocks it, and provides the way to freedom. I felt empowered. It seems that life itself is a great mystery. Most of the experiences in our lives are shrouded in mystery and mystery is something to be explored and not something to be left aside. We are created and hard wired to get the ‘suss’ on life in small, incremental steps.
Please support my campaign that is destined to impact thousands of lives.
