The Head is Shaky

 Hey everyone been away for a couple of days  but I 'm back!!!


   This morning I was watching Smile Jamaica on Television Jamaica (TVJ) as I always so however this morning the leader of the opposition Andrew Holness was was on and on this occasion I saw a calm and collective side to him, in his natural habitat away from the jungle of the parliamentary discussions and there was an absence of the blame game.There is rarely a day that goes by that we aren't face with the usual arguments between the two major political parties that head our country when this usual battle is missing it is viewed as a good day. The blame game has become even more present these days due to the infamous term IMF in our country now its on the lips of majority of Jamaican's.
    I find it so upsetting because when the JLP first got into the IMF dealings the PNP was in strong opposition, when the JLP wanted to borrow funds from the NHT the PNP again was in strong opposition yet still they are now all for heading into these directions. Confused or too talkative?? so much so that they will talk themselves into a dark corner. "If the head is shaky the body will together" this sums up the Prime Ministers current position she is simply just barely standing, shaking in the wind. I'm also baffled by the fact that when sporting events are coming up the money is always so forth coming and overflowing but the Student Loan Bureau can't find money from here there or anywhere. Priorities, priorities our country doesn't understand priorities. When students fail in school the teachers are always the first to be blamed then why should we hesitate to blame the leader of our country when our country is failing? Why continue to fight so hard to gain the leadership then do nothing wit h the opportunity given. Is it just about the power and just the glory of saying I won because that's how it is coming across to the citizens of Jamaica.
     I believe until the leaders of our country start acting like leaders and take their responsibilities seriously the body our country will fall together because of  a shaky head. The country indeed has faced many problems before our current leader was given the opportunity to make a change but effort goes a far way rather than the mere words and words and rumblings and blame game that she continues to echo from her mouth.

TVJ Schools' Challenge Quiz Prizes

The buzzer ignited the excitement in my veins for many years. I grew up watching TVJ Schools' Challenge Quiz and I saw it as a means of once again unifying the nation through friendly rivalry. As the years rolled by things started to change and the blatant favouritism could be seen coming from our television screens. The power of some of the more prominent high schools would allow them to end up in the winning circle. Apart from the fun element turning into some what of a war each year, what has changed drastically is the awarding of the various prizes at the end. Throughout the years we could expect to see students from some of the participating schools coming forward to collect their various prizes at the end of the competition. We looked forward to hearing what the students would be awarded for their hard workout throughout the season. Apparently, this was deemed to be too much of a problem to broadcast so it was eliminated completely. All we see now is the winner collecti

This World

  A world where people don't love you if you can't supply them with all the material things they need. A world where people marry just to get citizenship in a country. A world where the most educated aren't the ones given the best of jobs. A world where the television and internet are left to teach our children values. A world where the leaders of the church spend more money on church buildings tha n feeding the poor. A world where children receive guns before they receive a book to read. A world where in one half of the world people fight for an apple to eat while in the other we pick,choose and refuse what to eat. A world where we cry when we have no new clothes or shoes but some have never felt the warmth of a shirt and pants on their cold flesh. A world where politicians get increases in pay while the citizens are placed on wage freeze for years. A world where everybody proclaims they can't trust anybody. A world where girls value are always occupied with their look
