However, there may be others who see the Glass more empty than full and these run the risk of offending the Celebrators by looking too closely at reality… Perhaps I fall within that group.

I certainly prefer seeing Christmas celebrated as a ‘Family Day’ instead of the Traditional Fairy Tale of Greed which does more long term harm to West Indians than any other Holiday period.

Not only is this Nativity Fable unrelated to us as a People but perpetuating the myth of Present-bringing Santa Claus have taught our Children to regard us as liars or believers in Ghosts.

For decades the consequences of our actions in celebration of this event have found that: · Giving our Daughters Toy Dolls encourage them to become premature Teenage Mothers · Giving our Sons Toy Guns encourage them to become violent criminals and antisocial · Our over consumption of salted ham and other meats contribute to our Hypertension · The constant feasting on Sweet, Cakes and Tarts contribute to our propensity for Diabetes

· The endless flow of Rums, Wines and Eggnog push us into being chronic Alcoholics

These actively contribute to the Greed of Gemmy, Gemmy Children who grow up as Adults with diminished ability for foresight and insight in the assessment of reality… As a consequence they resist anyone who does not subscribe to foolishness and imaginary friends… There is no doubt I upset these by supplying ‘Truth for the Youth’ instead of perpetuating Traditional lies and folly.

Quite likely you were annoyed with my 1-Man Marches against Ignorance and my statement that in these hard economic times Prince William’s Wedding Holiday was wasted Money that we could not afford… I said it as I saw it and although my view did not make you happy, UK finally acknowledged Time & Monies squandered on such events should be saved & put to better use.

As a consequence a new British Law reduces the Queen’s Budget and allows no more money from Taxpayers to pay for Expenses of the same Prince and his Wife. In this new awakening the Queen’s Son, Prince Charles, will have to pay salaries for the staff of his son, Prince William &his new bride… They awoke but we still sleep as our Children only see the ‘Ease of Life’.

Instead of learning to seek solutions they see their (ease) ‘E,s’ as the Energy & Enthusiasm they have in abundance while seasoned Adults are more in tune with the ‘Why’s’ of life where ‘WI’ equals Wisdom & Intelligence… To me what we need most is the full mixture of ‘WEE & I’ for without this combination too many Youth will die in Hope while too many Adults exist in regret.

Three Terms ago our People caught a Virus – Two Terms ago they became III – One Term ago they got Caskets –This Term I fear we have entered the Eulogy Phase on the way to Burial.

However, with over 40 Candidates claiming ability to stop this Death March it is now left to see whether those who were not elected will act or follow the custom of sleeping for the next 4 years.

History shows that even unelected Candidates have the potential to be as influential as any Back-bencher or Member of the Opposition but they must decide whether they truly wanted to help in stamping out the Greed, Corruption, Wickedness & Evil that is destroying our People & Country or whether, in fact, they were really looking to help themselves as so many others before them.

Without social pressure to make crooked Politician walk the straight & narrow there is no reason for Zebras to change their Stripes and business will continue as usual… Persons admit things are bad but several have already approached me with blind conviction that things will now be done (especially B&F Projects) since the Old Government is no longer there to block Local Projects.

If only that was true it would be a great improvement but as far as I’m aware the Ring leaders of stopping & blocking were actually Friends & Supporters of this Present Government… Nonetheless Members now profess not to know the reasons behind this constant blocking of B&F Medical Projects – If they really do not know then those of you who know should tell them.

After all it would be tragic to think that as leaders they are unaware our People continue to be sick & die because those in high offices use riches they stripped from backs of the Poor to pay for their own health care even as they block & impede the Quality and affordable Health Care that B&F Medical is trying to provide for the ordinary Family… The big question remains why?

This clearly has nothing to do with AC Frett but everything to do with the corrupted Systems of Politics, Religion and Judiciary… It is the infestation of these Systems by the wicked & greedy that are killing our People and destroying their future even as they steal from the Poor to make the Rich richer. They will teach you that winning & losing Elections come with Consequences.

Naturally they expect everyone to lie down and play dead to satisfy their wickedness but that will no longer happen. The God of Nature & Laws of Balance see us all as equal so even all their Wealth & Power will not be save them, their family and their friends from the same sickness, death, trials and tribulations they now seek to impose on the Poor, Weak and Less Fortunate.

They are rich & powerful but we must fight on for there is such a smell of Wickedness in our Territory that unless we stop mistaking stench for perfume the Pressure that comes from those above will kill more & more of us below even as we await redemption that will never come from Oppressors. Maybe one day our people will begin to read the writing that is already on the wall.

Last Month we played the Lottery and chose between a Rock and a Hard Place… Many are still waiting for their Number to be called but many are also hoping their Number isn’t called since Persons who were once regarded as Permanent & Pensionable Staff now find themselves ‘here Today and gone Tomorrow’ in this game of Revolving Doors and Musical Chairs.

Many now see this as mere repetition of the past except we have officially entered the Period of Eulogies or ‘You Lie Geez’ where there will be Good Words and Big Jobs for Bad People as Crime & Suffering increase and the BVI becomes a place of too much Stress & too many Deaths… Without hope we will turn to blame, excuses, empty promises & imaginary friends.

Many will cry ‘Better soon come’ or ‘Time for a Change’ as they forget Yesterday and ignore Tomorrow while doing nothing for Today… Legal and Religion Systems will thrive on those who can’t wait to die to get to Heaven even as they continue living in Hell… They claim deficit but Politicians will still control the strings of the Purse until we learn if it’s ‘For better or worse’.
