Changes

The essence of life
The evolution of man
Which allows us to mature, grow and understand
Sheds our old skin, as we blossom into something special
As we deal with reality, from a whole different perception
Change helps us attain, in new expeditions we explore
As we withstand the pain, and adversity we endure
It closes a chapter, as we move onto the next
As we prepare for the truth, and begin our quest
Change propels us, into a whole new realm
Going beyond boundaries, not settling for less
It begins a new chapter, and rewrites stories of old
For it’s scary to know, new chapters can unfold
It’s satisfying to know, true friends remain constant, throughout the phase
As we overcome challenges, and look towards brighter days.

Generation X has spoken!!

Generation X has spoken! And democracy has spread vastly around the world and the country once again! As president elected Barrack Obama becomes the first African-American president elected in US history. But with great hurdles and challenges, comes optimism. Suggesting President elected Barrack Obama might be way over his head, as he leads the country out of one of the worst financial crisis, since the great depression. Many are still in shock and awe, while others are saying this might be too great of a task for the inexperienced Barrack Obama to handle. Considering the history of politicks and how it plays an intricate role in elections past. How can someone who served the state legislator for seven years be equipped to deliver change and hope to America? Whether or not we are positive he’s the right person for the job, Change is here! And Barrack Obama will get the opportunity to showcase his great belief and utterance he has been implying to the American people for the next four to eight years. If this doesn’t play out to be the perfect story ending we were intended. Our future outlook on the country and politics as a whole might be in jeopardy, as many citizens will start to contemplate the factor of being suckered in by politicians dressed in well tailored suits, with the gift of gab, and an undeniable swagger. Being an immigrant of Jamaica, the dream that was once promised to me, eluded me, but has resurfaced with great confidence once more. But knowing the track record of history, one can’t help, but wonder, is this another poly to take advantage of a vulnerable state of the country, therefore exploiting the only thing we have left. Hope! Only time we tell…
