Beschreibungen/Notizen

• First of all, let me thank you for the suggestion that I put into action your own thoughts about what I might have to say looking back on my life in relation to my profession, my occupation. [...]skipping all that childhood when I must be grateful to my parents, ever grateful to them, who showed me the right way in life. PH Well, I am interested in the parent aspect of it because I think it is so important in terms of what it does for young people growing up, providing the kind of nurture while at the same time inspiring them, challenging them to make good of themselves. Because now, in Jamaica today, I think a lot of what we are seeing, a lot of the negative things that we are seeing, is due to lack of this parental guidance, influence and challenge. [...]it wasn't long after, weeks maybe, that, yes we would work and study, and finish our internship and embark upon life together.
