God

Miss Mexico is the new Miss Universe 2010 after a gala of a contest at Las Vegas this past Monday. I watched as the top 15 were being called out and thought 'wow any of these women look as if they belong in the top 15.' And of the top 15, any could be the new Miss Universe. Such was the task of the judges--mere humans who decide on a winner using all their combined expertise, experiences, vantage points, opinions and observations.

I watched Miss Jamaica stride across the stage and thought wow...here is the winner...as she her swimsuit clad body. I did not even compare the points delivered by the judges. Facebook was alive...Jamaica, Mexico, Philippines...well Ukraine might have been lost in the eventual semi-final questions.

Jamaica(IMHO) did not display a great evening gown. Mexico's and the other's were a tad more elegant. The questions were answered more or less at the same level with the Philippines' answer being almost a non-answer. I believed that given the gown that Mexico had edged Jamaica.

Later, Google revealed to me that Miss Jamaica was well-seasoned and it showed. Check for yourself she has been in many a contest. And it showed. Her gait and confidence was super. It was the little things that allowed our neighbour to win. I am so glad for them especially since is of the country so many of us visit everyday.

The next day I was taken aback. LoveFM's headlines was that Miss Jamaica was the runner-up. Why not 'Miss Mexico wins and Miss Jamaica is runner-up' thus giving all our region kudos? Bad move LoveFM.

On the other side of the equation is the world. Some nincompoops are alleging that Jamaica lost since she mentioned God as being the only one that can take a life. Some people think that she should have respected those that do not believe in God.

Oh, how I am so so sorry for humankind or those in humankind that auto-place blinders to God. Why? They are rebels without a cause and oppose for the sake of opposing...sociopaths.

So many of our social ills are rooted in the move away from God. All the gangs, drugs, violence, child abuse, human trafficking, etc. is full of perpetrators that have lost or never had faith in God. This faith has to be instilled at the very early ages of a person's life. Much of this has to come from family and schools.

Operation Jaguar can growl loud enough to blow the dust on the moon but little can it do to curb our society. This will be a slow process that needs to begin from the very fabric of our souls. Yes! It begins when we are babies but us adults have to give in to reason and to God. Us adults have to change many things before we can successfully sow and then reap a new crop of children.

This new crop would then reap all the glory and peace that Belize is ready to offer to Belizeans and the world.

Are their any takers??????

I...love God!!!
