A Life Report to My Late Grandmother Joyce
Would you be proud of me if you were present here with us?
My grandmother, let me start off by saying you are dearly missed. There’s been a lot that has transpired since your passing in 2017.
I like to make a benchmark comparison of the progress of my life by using my parents. I think its only fair. If a child is born and becomes worse than their parents, then was the investment wasted?
I indeed think so. For even the Bible says that the father lays the foundation and the son puts on the gate.
Looking back at the major milestones from 2017 , at age of 30, and considering the strenuous living conditions in Jamaica, i was able to:
Get my first degree, get married, get a new vehicle, been promoted 4 times, become a Justice of the Peace, become a father, and become an assistant youth president and Jnr. minister at church (you raised me in church).
I currently have a few more goals pending, such as finishing my Masters degree, and goals that I have yet to start, such as owning a home. I pray that the Lord opens up doors for these breakthroughs.
Considering that the average 30-year-old male in Jamaica is not this accomplished, I extend my gratitude to the heavens above and show love to myself for doing as much as I could.
All in all, I know you would be proud of me, Grandma Joyce, so I’m proud of myself.
