Suicide

Countless of times you have been told to be kind to persons on the street, school, work, etc because you do not know what they are going through. 

You would be a ray of sunshine always smiling, always cheerful until one day I saw darkness and no amount of light shed could make it go away. You went so deep into darkness that you've lost your way. 

Everyday is a struggle not just to live but to be happy. It amazes me the ignorance that is in this country. 

People are so judgmental and those criticism that they make hurts us in some way shape or form. It brings tears to my eyes knowing that because of bullying or depression a person take their own life. Suicide is NEVER an option, if you feel like killing yourself please just stop, inhale and exhale and think about the good that has happened to you, even if it was good for just a split second just think about how happy you were in that time, go back to that inner peace.

People kill themselves for their sexuality, their depression or if they are bullied. Never you let society defines who you are and what you can be. Your sexuality does not define you nor your abilities to succeed. 

Your sexuality just describe who is it you prefer to cuddle with. I know that this world can be cruel it has happened to be before, being depressed for days, losing massive weight because of depression which was caused by bullying. Believe me when I say you are going to overcome it and the same persons who bullied you are going to be the ones begging to be your friends.

You see society is DUMB and they judge what they can't see, which is your heart, the goodness of you, your abilities. They judge you outwards instead of inwards but yet still they be the same ones saying that you should not judge others because of the how they appear on the inside but judge base upon their character. 
People commit suicide because they think it will end their pain, their problems but problems and pain are only TEMPORARY but taking your life is a permanent factor. This world we live in offers such beauty but the people who are in it makes it ugly.

If you ever need a person to talk to just email me at the email address in the blog with the topic arising in your life as the subject and I'll reply. Please note that you can choose to hide your identity from me, either way it won't be revealed. 

I ask you one final thing, look in the mirror and the part of your body you hate tell yourself that you love it, everyday for a month and let me know what happens.

The Jamaican Government and the Ebola Virus

Is the Ebola virus in Kingston,Jamaica and if so why is the government hiding it from us ?

I am beyond outraged at the government of Jamaica, instead of wanting to protect your people you are putting us in harm. The Ebola virus is in Kingston, Jamaica no joke, all seriousness. The person is currently getting treated in an unnamed location in the island and he is being isolated from us (the rest of the population). I’m sure you have all heard the so-called “rumours”, of the doctor who has it.Well if you think it is a rumour then remember what we Jamaicans always say “ if it nuh guh so, it guh near so”. Please note that when I talk I talk facts and this information that I received about the person who has Ebola is coming from a very trustworthy source.

My main concern is not only protecting myself but to protect my home, my country. This virus kills 50% of the person it comes in contact with, but in the past weeks that has risen from 50% to 90%.

One of the most recent biggest lie that this government has told us once again via ads and so forth is that Ebola is spread directly through bodily fluids. THIS IS A LIE. In truth, Ebola can spread through the air over short distances via aerosols - airborne particles and can be contacted through contaminated surfaces. Let’s say you give your friend your phone to make a call and they hand it back to you; they may leave the Ebola virus just by touching the phone and the virus can be open for minutes or even hours and then you yourself have been in contact with the Ebola virus.

This is also the same government who hid the fact that the Chik-V was here in Jamaica and said that they had it under control. If they had it under control then why do the percentage rates of persons having the Chik-V are on a rise ? Wise up people !

NOTE: Ebola like other viruses can’t stand heat or sunlight so they can be destroyed by this (this statement does not mean that if we are near heat or if we stand in the sun it will be destroyed).

It has been said that Jamaica is a third world country and so we cannot afford the instruments needed to take care of this deadly virus but yet our ever loving Prime Minister Portia Simpson-Miller travels in fine style by taking private jets/planes just like how a majority of us take taxi. Her lavish lifestyle ending in the result of her travel expenses adding up to over one million JMD and I repeat that is just for TRAVEL EXPENSES but yet we can’t afford some few basic utensils that can help a country! – Good Job Portia J, or was this your idea or Peter Phillips ?

People stop and think for a few minutes if the US government which is a first world country does not have everything under control when it comes to the Ebola virus then why do we a mediocre third world country phantoms the mere idea that we can have it under control when we can’t even have an issue such as a raise in bus fare under control? If you are thinking that the US government still have it under control then why did Obama just recently sign an executive order authorizing the forced government quarantine of anyone showing symptoms of infectious disease? -Let us not be fooled any longer.

The incubation period, that is, the time interval from infection with the virus to onset of symptoms is 2 to 21 days. Humans are not infectious until they develop symptoms.

You should be aware that it can be difficult to distinguish Ebola from other infectious diseases such as malaria, typhoid fever and meningitis.

There is no treatment nor no cure for this disease at this particular day and time.

The Jamaican government should protect its people by ensuring that anyone who wants to come into the country get tested in the country that they are in and if the results are positive then they be denied access into this country. You think that if Jamaica was Africa right now and we had the virus the Americans would not do the same thing? Ha! Just look at how much visas they deny daily, so just imagine if it was an epidemic illness. Local celebrities should take pre-cautions when travelling and upon return to Jamaica they should be given the same treatment.

I am only ONE person and I cannot do this alone, I know that these are burning issues and no one had the guts to say it but if it takes me to talk up and speak the truth then so will I. I need the help and co-operation of all other Jamaicans, we need to protest, protest for the truth. Just remember that we do HAVE A CHOICE and OUR VOICES do matter but to do this we need unity. Let us unite for a cause that is not only beneficial to us but also to the ones we love and cherish.
