My Wish for Jamaica

Firstly, what a blessing it is to live in a country where we still are afforded many privileges. When I look around I don't have to look far to find something to smile about in Jamaica on the other hand however I don't have to look far either to find something to be sad about. The source of a Jamaica's many problems stems from selfishness. Selfishness from politicians,children,old people,teachers,pastors,selfishness can be found all over the island. When I enter a taxi I always pause to say good morning or good afternoon and am often met with strange stares as if I have done something wrong. People have sent me messages saying I bash my nation too much,really? Even when I address the negativity I always highlight the positivity. I want a change in my nation therefore I will make known the wrongs that I see taking place.

Parents, the bible speaks to training up a child well when he is young and when he is old he will not depart from it yes that is true.But honestly I have seen many parents who have instilled the best values in their children and they have deviated from that path. Before we jump up ready to blame parents for the wrongs we see on a daily basis by young men and women in society you should take a
look at the mindset of the child themselves.

Politicians, when you realize that it takes more than just a 500 or 1000 to bring a change to a community or a once a year visit to remind people that you represent them. Investments need to be made all across Jamaica people need something to do and yes opportunities are around and some refuse to grasp them but that's ok let them be we can't force everyone to want to make a difference in their lives.

Children,are so quick to become adults these days but then again what can we expect when parents put false hair in their children hair,place makeup on their faces, put them in high heels and buy them the most expensive gadgets. Don't use your child as an accessory to show off to your friends them turn around later on and complain that your child is too materialistic and have no manners.

Jamaica can be changed I believe it with all my heart but selfishness needs to leave the hearts of men

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
