Reclaiming my Guyanese Home
This blog is about my own home and the home ofmy fellow Guyanese who left their home and would
like to go back to it.
Many Guyanese have come to the place where leaving
their homeland is a necessity. Na, ah tink me wrang.
For many Guyanese it is a matter of survival.
The poor Guyanese who are constantly oppressed
by poverty are glad to head off for another home
in USA, Canada, England, etc. Can anyone blame
the poor Guyanese?
Me na gat no quarrel with any poor Guyanese
wanting to betta demself. Me na like doh when
dem Guyanese who lef Guyana a baad talk deh
homeland. A don't mean sayin de truth about bad
things going on in Guyana. A mean dem fellas
despise de country so much dat deh forget all de
free education and free or low cost medical, not
to mention free wata, etc, dat deh get from de
country.
Those Guyanese would find it difficult to go back
to reclaim their home. Notice, I said home not
houses and lands. The country is home.
Le me tell yo something else. Me tink dem chap
a still hang on to de Guyana passport while deh
still bad mouthin de place.
Now, you that love your homeland, don't just talk
about going back one day to reclaim it. That day
may remain only in your dreams. A more manage-
able thing to do is visit as often as you can. You
can do it if you really want to. In your plans to
reclaim your Guyanese Home, keep this thought
in mind and you will not regret your move. Go
with the thought of doing some good for your
homeland. Even if you go to spend some extra
money in the land you will be contributing to
its prosperity. If many Guyanese reclaim their
home only partially because they are not able
to do otherwise, the land will increase with
blessings. Many more poor Guyanese may be
encouraged to remain in Guyana because they
will have more hope of a better day at home.
This is only one small idea, but a feasible one.
See you in Guyana sometime.
