My Jamaican Experience

Jamaica land we love, it’s more of a playground. A field for playing; which the Bigger heads have given us. We can are under a certain prefixed threshold set by the universe.

Having siblings is where we realize the special role Jamaica and the Caribbean has to play for the world. Face the facts; North America is nothing like the movies. The first two questions were are asked by Caucasians are (1) is it cold enough for you? (2) Why did you leave paradise? You dear reader can look on this reality from the left or the right. But the fact remains, if Jamaica not “keeping it jiggy “ then we in worries. USAID and Digicel foundation to name two charities, do plenty of good work but me personal reasoning come back down to Jamaica and the diaspora is better off if our global ‘One World ‘ role was explained effectively to a people who ready for ‘something to do’ on the world stage. Bolt gets it. JamaicaDiaspora.com is worthy to appeal to our needs to match up to what’s out there or even become a utopia. The content is great. Maybe complacency of the early seventies and 2000s is real killer and not the killers loose in the streets of 1980s and 2021.Who to tell. Personally me threshold for bad news has reached a point where me can’t read ‘The Philosophy and Opinions of Marcus Garvey’ nor watch the daily news. Maybe we the intellectual class, read too many books. Because the Good book says knowledge increases sadness. (Paraphrase). Me personally prefer we do the Jimmy Cliff thing instead of the revolutionary Bob Marley thing, or maybe time will tell. But, one thing for sure we climb the charts either way.
