I love the people in the Caribbean. I have been to a number of islands, including Barbados. Most are very gracious and wonderful to talk and socialize with. I do see the fabulous wealth of the few and the poverty of the many. But I also see that the people of the Caribbean are very proud, and want more than anything, their own identity. Intelligent, funny, and opinionated.I love spending time with them. I think that colonialism still exists there in some form or another. And I am torn when hearing of the instability, and the inactivity of my own country. I hope one day it will really be paradise for them too.
