    Creole Day Celebrations is beautiful/wonderful. It is worthwhile celebrating.
    Celebrations last for one day, probably a few days. Love, peace and unity should last forever.
    What crossed my mind, if only everyone would cooperate, live in peace and unity, religiously and politically, this would complete the love among Dominicans. This is badly needed.
    Dominicans must pray for this, a Christian-like attitude. We cannot please God otherwise.
    So while you enjoy these celebrations, think about it. When it is all over, keep it up and practice the Christian spirit. Everyone will be happier, safer and live in peace and unity. There is no other way year round.
    This is my wish for each one of you. Would love to see Dominica excel in this and be a model for other countries.
    God bless! Keep safe!

    They should call it “native dressup month” instead of Independence day because the British just pulled out. There was to declaration of independence or fight for independence.
