RE: Reflecting on my recent visit to Jamaica

in Reflections2 years ago

Years ago I learned to put that in perspective for my health and well-being, but it is tough.

That's the most important thing. We do what we can do in this world, and help others when we can, but when facing systemic issues that would take generations to change, we must consider where we can effectively spend our energy.

Maybe when your parents are ready to retire, you can convince them to sell the plantation and enjoy their later years with you!

Sort:  

Oh, my parents retired many years ago, they are both coming up to 80 years soon.
Luckily my mum spends her days tending to her garden. She's an energy buddy 😆. I can't see any of them living in a cold country at all. My parents are always happy for us to visit, however, it's difficult for us when we are restricted as to where we can go.

Oh my, I didn't realize they were getting on in years. They look good! Well then I can especially see why it is extra hard to leave them when you visit. Well, I'm not sure how, but I hope there's a way for Jamaica to become a safer place to visit again.

My parents would be pleased to hear that😊

I hope there's a way for Jamaica to become a safer place to visit again.

I really hope so. 🤞🙏
