Mothers Day by Saccheen Laing

Mother's Day

Who was the one to hold you when your little feet couldn't go on?
Who was the one to correct you when you were doing wrong?
Where would we be without her? The one to show us the right path?
How much more difficult would life be without the wisdom she shares to you and me?

Who can love you like a mother can?
Who can place a simple kiss on your aching hand and make it like new brand?
Who can? No one can like a mother
Our nation is blessed because of the love she bestows
God has blessed her to open our eyes when they are closed
God has blessed her to provide bread and butter when the gas is nowhere to be found

Who never let you go hungry? Who made sure you had shelter from the storm?
Who but a mother?
Her forgiving spirit is like no other
Just think back to Hannah in the bible
Such pure dedication and faith
That's how strong a mothers heart can go on hoping and hoping for their little one
One faithful prayer from a mother has saved thousands of sinful souls
You ask me what is love?
Just think of your mother
How much she has done for you
And how little you have been thankful

Mothers are a special gift from God
The glue that keeps this troubled world together
(M)-Molding the future minds for a better tomorrow
(O)-Opening up our hearts to understand the real meaning of love
(T)-Touching our souls with kindness and compassion
(H)-Honestly loving us when we deserve to be frowned upon
(E)-Earnestly seeking The Lord to have mercy upon us
(R)-Relaxing our troubled spirits when we don't know which way to go
(S)-Sacrificing all they have to ensure that we have all what we need

Let's not love them just today and show them we care
Let's love them tomorrow and forever in every single way

Reimagining the Big Screen: How Palace Amusement Can Level Up the Jamaican Movie Experience

As a Digital Marketer in Jamaica, how would I revamp Palace Amusement? Here are some of my ideas: 1. The History of Palace Amusement - Create a campaign highlighting where the company is coming from, where it is now, and where it will be. Speak to grandparents who visited at the start, and have each group share their experience. Tie these experiences in with a film of the time. 2. The Love of Palace – Many couples have had their first dates at the movies, sparking relationships that blossomed into marriages and lifelong love stories. This campaign will highlight some of these real-life romances using a black-and-white aesthetic to evoke nostalgia and emotional connection in a visually captivating TV commercial, which will also be promoted across digital platforms. The campaign will culminate in an in-person event where couples with similar love stories will be invited to a special screening of the romance movie currently showing. Brands will be invited to partner in creati...

New Look, Same Tastee: Creative Digital Rebrand Ideas to Revive the Brand Online

My first patty love was Tastee Patties, and to be honest, it is truly disappointing to see that they have failed to capitalize on and take the brand to new levels. In this blog post, I will break down some of the ideas that I would implement to revive the brand in the digital space to surpass what competing brands are currently doing. The First Bite In primary school, Tastee Patties felt like a reward; our end-of-week treasure after saving a few dollars from lunch money each day. That first bite was more than food; it was joy, friendship, excitement, and pure Jamaican childhood wrapped in a flaky crust. The First Bite Campaign will tap into that shared memory, reconnecting generations to the Tastee moment they’ll never forget, while also introducing younger Jamaicans to the brand in a way that feels timeless, cultural, and deeply personal. Tastee Canteen Makeover Challenge Tastee Patties has been a staple of school lunches across Jamaica for decades, sponsoring canteen areas and m...

The Young are being murdered

The death of the young By:©Saccheen Laing I put on my uniform Armed with books I set out in search of a good education. Streets lined with the blood stains of those who fell on the way I'm determined to live to see another day But I have no control over those who believe they can have their own way. Armed with guns and knives They attack me, They assault me, They abuse me , Because they believe they have control over me Because of guns and knives in hand. In my hands I write my plans A singer, an actor, a doctor, a fashion designer or a police man I clench my fist as my blood runs to join those who fell before My plans remain in my hands Never to be realized I am young but that means nothing on this land. The blood of the young will replace the ocean that surrounds and beautifies the land How many more shall die before you answer when I ask why? My mother shall cry and bury her son before he becomes a man My brot...
