.
Friends countrymen I was born a long time ago on the shores of an alluring fishing town called Vieux-Fort. Truth be told my tumultuous childhood has given me the gift of self-awareness .Looking back to yesteryear I had a very turbulent childhood experience growing up in Saint Lucia,
When I look back @ the relationship I had with my family and school mates I do sometimes wonder what the fuc# did I do wrong to deserve such treatment...
In my twilight years I have so many questions like why did my parents deem it necessary to give me up for adoption? Is it because I was an ugly baby. Why did some of my teachers find pleasure in humiliating me why my school mates avoided me and enjoy making fun of me.
To this day I can vividly remember some of the hurtful comments made my others .-Why can't you be like your uncle and siblings. Why are you so lazy -You will never amount to much These comments were painful they rob me of my innocence ..
The people of Vieux-Fort ,took every opportunity to steal my joy......I kid you not - even the most ugly girls in town stayed away from me ....
..It has taken me a very long time to come to the realization that I will never have a harmonious relationship with the people of Vieux-Fort -
There was a young boy called Kenneth Marthurin , who's friendship help pull me out of my dark hole of despair he was a good friend and the only friend I had while growing up in Saint Lucia .Nothing last forever in 1965 Kenneth said adios to Saint Lucia and moved to London England ...
For what it's worth in 1978 I was rendered homeless and piss ass broke in Chicago.
I had absolutely nothing did not know where my next meal would come from .Many a nights I went to bed hungry and cold.
With God on my side I took a leap of faith went to Triton College of Nursing and successfully graduated. Prior to this I graduated from Chicago City Wide College as a Emergency Medical Technician To satisfy my ego I graduated from Wright College as a Nursing Assistance ,Coyne American Institute with an emphasis in Industrial Electrical Maintenance .I also have a diploma from Coyne in Air Conditioning-Refrigeration and Heating .I also graduated From Merrell Barracks in Germany as a Radio Repair Technician .
Under the auspices of my bodacious mentor I was able to read a prospectus effectively and invest wisely in the stock Market unlike most Saint Lucians I have a lucrative stock portfolio
that generates a passive income for me .With seven figures in assets I retired comfortable at the tender age of 50. Today I am having the last laugh .How many of my class mates and teachers can match my success......Nowadays I wine and dine in some of the most sumptuous countries like Monaco -Paris .Nice - Germany -Venice -50 countries 200 cities on 6 continents .....to God the glory
