    This is a beautiful picture with natural blue water on a bright, sunny day. View the green, healthy trees; also the red ones including the banana tree (or plantain?).
    Breathtaking, serene and indeed paradise. Would be wonderful just sitting, looking at this scenery and allowing the mind to reminisce on whatever good crosses the mind, including God’s masterpiece and creation.
    What peace and tranquility. If only we could do this daily to stop and smell the roses, so-to-speak. What happiness would ensue.

    Wow, wow, wow! What a beauty! Looks like the person was standing in Perjiste or Jovier’s yard or even by Mam-Dadoe or Nenda. Memories on Orange Hill (Morne Zoewainye) where Jim, Paris, Mayhue, Teepam, Volancia, Teefee and the rest were born and bred. Lovely Pte. Soufriere, land of Carlo, Margel, Zexia, Degger, Amatus, Dang, Cocoseck, Saxon, Huxley and the rest.Those were the days.

    Assertive, NOT Agressive!
