Long Time, No Connect

Hi,

Just a few of my thoughts written all over the place - on my laptop, my various sticks, company machine, bits of paper..and the beat goes on.  So take a read to find out where my head has been.

Hello,

It's been a while since I've written but boy o' boy I have been busy.  Finished my examinations for taught courses in mid-May and went straight into seeking a new place of abode.  After 26 years of calling 30, Rajnauth Street, my home, I've moved!  I feel that I can open a business moving homes.  It was a true test of project management skills especially handling the human factor.  Am still in Diego Martin in a much smaller place and I now live on a hill.  I am sure that I shall have "buns of steel" within three (3) months!

I wish to take the time to wish all those potential fathers, fathers and grand-fathers a HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!

   Trinidad is hard!

To pay a bill...is hard
To find a parking space in the city...is hard
If you’re old and cannot afford private health care...is hard
Send your kids to recreate and they get stabbed to death...is hard

Nobody on the streets at night...is hard

Happiness

Taken from Trinidad Guardian, March 2013  Here is the ad I mentioned in a previous writing.  Hope you can read it (take our the magnifying glass, if you can't).  For me, the advertising firm, Ross Advertising can win the Happiness Award!   I started  internet searching  using the word, happiness,  about 4 years ago  when I was at a low ebb and  boy can you ever find variations on a theme!   Some are seeking to build a better society, while others point to individual happiness. What we perceive as happiness is as varied as all other things God has made. It's interesting, this thing happiness, that we all seek and it seems it comes through the incremental things we do.  For some people it is found in hard work or having money in the bank, the smell of a baby, your pet coming to greet you, standing on a podium giving a speech,liming with the boys, the smell that comes out of the hot earth as the rain beats down, the delight in a...

Why I Bother?

-
Someone one keeps on asking me,  with irritation in here voice, words to the effect, " why do you bother?  Why do you feel you have to change the world?"  She asked me this months ago and I could not respond.  I know my conscious intent isn't to change the world.  I do know that whatever knowledge I have I want to impart .  I do know I want to make this country, Trinidad and Tobago better.  As a matter of fact any country in which I live, I want to give to the fullest.   Early one Sunday morning my response formed and I preferred not to answer my friend directly rather,  to ease my mind, I wrote my answer on Facebook.  Now, I re-print here. _________________________________________________ I talk with everybody. I talk with people on the bus - the older woman who tells me that she has only visited the U.S. once and it sure doesn't touch TnT, the young man whose eyes warm when he speaks of his daughter of 2 years.
