About Me






Welcome to my page everyone!!!!! My name is Saccheen Laing and I'm from the beautiful island of Jamaica. I've always had a passion for writing so I decided that I should start blogging. I'm a published poet who currently has four poetry books on the market. They are called, The Voice of Jamaica , The Poet's Escape and Stripped Souls. On this blog, I share my views on issues affecting my country and in the world at large. I also have a section for some of my poems and videos as well. It's my hope that after vising my blog you will feel as if you are truly not alone in this world. My views on topics will help to guide you and motivate you in different areas of life. My quotes will also lead you to a better understanding as to the thinking of people. Whatever I forget to say here I'm sure you will figure out as you go along.

A world where girls value are always occupied with their look
