Life can be bitter sweet with the ups and downs and the ins and outs. When you think about it, your life, my life, is astronomically small compared to all that have passed and is to come. Life for me is brilliantly dull, its almost candid really, i am doing nothing, with my eyes wide shut to the world. I had a once fail safe idea of basically living dead, i.e. creating nothing but boring excitement to keep myself out of trouble...that didn't work. The numbing sensation i felt told me that wasn't the way to go, it was best to live life to the fullest. Living in Jamaica is sometimes like being born dead to the world, no one can hear you scream, no one to rescue you from the abundant poverty. I am talking about the quiet screams i hear daily from the unknown neighbors of my island home. It is a sure bet that these calls will go unanswered, a people without a voice, stuck in the chasms of poverty.
