The scene is set in the Caribbean, where a young woman of humble upbringing
has caught the eye of an American Young Man, who ignited her imagination
with stories of American Dreams. This wasn’t the fi rst time she had heard
wonderful stories about America; she had seen the American TV Shows and heard
those wonderful stories throughout her entire young life. Like most everyone on the
small island of Barbados, at that time, she had learned to admire America; so when
this young man offered her a life of ‘Milk and Honey’, full of excitement and wonder, in
a new world, where all of her dreams could come true; it was easy to say yes.
Get ready for a trip to the Amusement Park… Prepare for the greatest little side show
you’ve ever witnessed. Get ready for a walk through the Fun House, where you will gaze
into a mirror and take a look at yourself, but the refl ection you see will be distorted,
compared to the one you are accustomed to. You are about to take the emotional
rollercoaster ride of a life time! Don’t be afraid; because throughout all of the
emotional ups and downs, you will feel the strength, the faith and the determination.
You will know that failure is not an option! You will witness the lessons learned and
eventually, the solutions will become clear and you will see hope on the horizon and
inspiration will rise, like the sun rises to bring warmth to a cold world!
