In Red Roses and Petrol, a reflective Enda mused, “A lifetime is far too short.” The thought-provoking statement is made even more poignant by the fact that the Doyle patriarch was facing the end of his life when he said it. Do you have a list of things you’d like to experience before you die? How much time would you really need to cross them all off? Is there anything keeping you from getting started right now? Sound off on our forum.
In Red Roses And Petrol, a dying and understandably introspective Enda told Johnny, “The nearest a man can get to immortality is to have a son.” While it’s true that children are one way to leave something of ourselves behind on this earth, they are certainly not the only way. Can you think of a better way to be remembered? Is achieving immortality something that’s important to you? Sound off on our Red Roses And Petrol forum.
It is said that death brings families together. But as the Doyles learned in Red Roses and Petrol, that isn’t always the case. Sometimes the loss of a loved one can bring anger, resentment, and regret into the mix… stirring the underlying grief into a boiler pot. What Moya hoped for, when her children returned home for their father’s wake, was a happy family reunion. What she got instead was much more bittersweet. Has your family suffered a loss? How did things play out for you? Share your story on our Red Roses and Petrol forum.
In Red Roses and Petrol, Enda’s family wrestles with the question of what to do with his remains. Enda wished for his ashes to be sprinkled on a mountain so he’d “go into the food chain a bit higher than everyone else.” Alas, his children, who reside in different countries, wanted to split up the “Da” and take him with them — even if it meant doing it in a lunchbox! Has your family faced an unusual dilemma following the death of a loved one? What did you decide to do? Share your story on our forum.
In Red Roses And Petrol, a reflective Enda Doyle asks, “What’s more important: To be a good man or to be a good father to your children?” Interesting question! But are the two mutually exclusive? If you volunteer in your community, earn a regular paycheck and go to church every week, but routinely break promises to your kids, are you still a good man? Conversely, if you coach Little League, help your son with his homework, and take him fishing every summer, and yet you’re cheating on the boy’s mother… are you still a good father? Enda waited until his dying days to ponder this conundrum. Do you have an opinion? Visit the Red Roses and Petrol forum to share your comments.
