Jamaica, land I love

You know, the truth of the matter is that often I can't help but be proud of my country. When I read links like this, or this I am can't help but feel a sense of pride. I think the role of the government should be to help people help themselves. I want to be apart of that. There is MUCH work that needs to be done in our country, and I want to help be apart of that. I am not so interested in rising the the heights of political office (though that would be great) but I want to be apart of that increased consciousness and development that is coming to our country. Jamaica has a history of being a world leader both in the exact sense of the idea but also in the sense of Caricom and the developing world at large. Let us regain our pride and our ideas, and start to flourish once more!
