Rural Regeneration
Social development is as integral to me as breathing as I grew up in a family that was always helping others to improve themselves or giving discreetly to those in need to help them maintain their dignity. Giving generously and humbly receiving were interchangeable virtues that marked my rich rural upbringing. Until Jamaicans revive the spirit of “it takes a village,” we will not move forward. Opportunities for helping others abound in the current stagflation and our social conscience should dictate that we reach out.
