when i roam around,
and query folks,
seek info,
i ALL-ways '.consider the source.',
when evaluating info/guidance/etc.
the '.source's.' motivations are important, too
nevertheless,
in this house-rental instance,
the house/area was described as '.lonely.' by SEVERAL folks,
...folks who's judgement & feedback i give great-weight
at the time (about 5+ years ago),
and NOW,
i knew/KNOW i'm NOT-ready for that house/location
an aside:>> about Jamaican use of language::::>> if dem-SAY::>> '..it lonely..', that's one thing.... IF dem-SAY::>> '..it's TOO-lonely..", then that takes it up a notch ----more-lonely .... if dem-SAY:::>> "..it's lonely-lonely.." (i.e., that's 2-lonely-s), then it's really-really isolated.

this place was '.too-lonely.'
all the-folks who told me about the place,
paused a few-seconds,
before they answer-ed me
you could *hear* the wheels churn-ing in dem heads/brains
i could tell they were looking out for my welfare,
but wouldn't/couldn't go into a lot of details,
so they just said:::>> "...it's too lonely.."
the ball was placed in my court
...'twas my decision
mi no idiot
i don't need to be beaten over the head
i GOT the message
i passed-up on the *opportunity*,
even though the price was VERY-VERY attractive
* sigh *
so it go
.

oh
oh

a boardie asked about someplace(?),
and was advised to reconsider their choice
mi-SAY:::>> '.ditto.'
i know nutin' about the location/place/neighborhood/etc.,
but *reading-between-the-lines*,
mi-gut-SAY:::>> "..BOOK else-where.."
argument DONE
