(G•in•tea) An ancient Gaelic word, meaning “fair” or “peace” and is modernly used to describe a type of bonding or healing moment between a person and someone else they care deeply about in a stressful or negative situation, where they would talk
everything out, sit in silence, share a hug, a kiss, or even share any type of embrace in reassurance that it will get better and to fix the current situation or mood.
A “Ginty” is used to help:
• calm a person in anger,
• help prevent or battle anxiety,
• assists in ending depressive episodes
• helps put an end to self-harming or self abuse (mentally)
Referring to the movie, “the
Jerk Theory”,
The main character sings the song, “Tell me it’s okay” and shares a Ginty with the woman in the scene, at 1:23:42 when she walks on stage and reassures him.
In that Ginty, she
kissed his hand, gently
released her grip and whispered her final words to him, “I’ll never let go”
watching him drift slowly in to the waters below, “I’ll never let go Jack, I’ll never let go.”
