Folks,
this trip
these on-site reports are the hardest EVER..!!..
I am OVER-whelmed (in the most-positive sense)
with how *things* have gone thus far.
This country's people are the best-est..!!..
for example,
people-wise,
a few minutes ago,
i pass-thru the Lucea-market
to see what/who i could/would see.
When what to my wandering eyes should appear, but a vendor-lady whom i hadn't seen in many a year.
See-ing people like her,
people whom i've seen grow,
struggleing to begin their biz-ness-es
and now
years later,
they're smiling and prosperous.
* whew *
what a feeling to see such progress
in sooooooooo many peoples
makes you wanna cry
well,
she, me, we exchanged howdy-do's, and glad to see ya's, bump-ed fists, shook hands, just short of huggin' each other ---- didn't wanna over-do things, ya know.
during our quick chat,
'cause we BOTH had things to do:::: she money to make, biz-ness to '.hangle.' ........... me:::>>> sights & people to see, budget & money to juggle, 'cause it's *try*-ing to jump out of my wallet like frogs in a black lada bag.
* sigh *
WHERE do the foreign-money GO, when you're in Jamaica..????..
don't make NO $en$e ---- none at-tall
:-(
neverthelss,
the nice vendor-lady tell me:::>> "..remember:::>> you have a balance.."
"..Huh..??.." <<<<::: mi-SAY
:-(
she-SAY:::>>> ".. I owe YOU Ja $30.."
she walked away, as my mouth FLY-open and,
d
r
o
p-ed to the ground.
* sigh *
'...land we love..' na tru
