Mary’s profile

Mary Murphy aka Pure Mary is often found outside walking and drinking in the minutiae of nature around her, sometimes with a wee doggy who loves people and has a tail that’s almost always wagging.

She feels proud when she hears that poetry she has written has had an impact on the reader & listener giving them a deeper understanding of the subject matter e.g., autism

Mary is happiest when she is singing in choir (especially when she challenges herself to sing a short solo), hearing all of the beautiful harmonies all around her and when she is performing poetry to a live audience.

She is a kind and thankful person and always finds a positive in every experience.

Mary’s friends & family would say her best traits are kindness, compassion and patience and that she has learned from her own experience to be deeply insightful.

She is passionate about writing & performing poetry, sharing information to encourage others to believe in their writing and performing ability, singing in choir and running a local community garden project.

She loves it when she sees the volunteers at the garden project learning new skills and the joy on their faces when they see seedlings sprouting from seeds they have sown and nurtured.

Mary believes in sharing her life experiences to benefit others going through similar situations, she also believes in the power of manifestation and universal energy.

She thrives when she pays attention to self-loving, self-caring, self-respecting action and has several ways of attaining this, through the use of writing, meditation, exercising at the gym, balancing busy times with periods of rest, taking supplements to help her body cope with chronic health conditions, staying in touch with friends and maintaining close relationships with her three adult sons.
