Happy Sunday to you and yours again !

In this special episode, I meet up with a Jamaican SUPERcentenarian, Ms. Leanora! She is 110 years old - and counting!
Her memory and hearing is not as sharp as it was a few years ago but it was blessing and absolute honor just to be able to share the same space, and speak with someone in that bracket of life!
And of course, there are some key life lessons for you too!
Enjoy

I feel like I mentioned this before but if I do, please consider this a friendly reminder😊
Its the fact that Jamaican tertiary schools are considered some of the best in the world!
If fact, in this report, the University Of The West Indies was ranked in the top 1.5% of all universities online!
So despite the distractions now in the education system, we do seem to be doing well, very well, perhaps another possible reason why we see so many youth migrating to study here! You can read more here.
And generally, what's the education system in Jamaica like?
Be sure to read this article.
Last weekend, my wife and I celebrated our anniversary at the beautiful Travelers' in Negril. It was great!
And so today I give a special shout out to them, the entire team, from Security to Front Desk and Restaurants, but particularly Shelly at reservations!
Thanks my friend!

Lots of inspiration and hope for me but I'm sure you'll find some gems in it as well. Here is it again!
