I, too, enjoyed and concur with your observations Lola.
Knowing people on a day to day, every day basis for months and months spanning many years gets you a certain insight into Jamaica's runnings that visiting for a few days a year can never achieve. Part of what makes Jamaica so enticing and addicting is that exuberance for living one's life and a hint of danger that can suddenly explode and then fade away like nothing happened.
Jamaicans are no stranger to senseless tragedies but there is usually more to the story that rarely gets told.
What happened to Colin is not acceptable and contrary to some beliefs will not go unpunished by either the authorities or some form of vigilante justice. Things just take a little longer in Jamaica.
I will be heading home in October and I remain in love with Jamaica.
Just my opinion.
