Good Morning everyone!

Just wondering if anyone ever took a Leave of Absence for a month or so from work to go to JA to be with your spouse? or did something similar. I've been toying with the idea of it. I hate that I have to continue to make a living lol why can't I just take a 22 mnth leave of absence with pay and my position secure? Is that too much to ask?!

No..but for real - anyone do this before?

Ms Parkin;

I go to Jamaica every two months. Last year I went 7 times and was there for 7 weeks Feb 2013 - March 2013. I am very blessed that at my job I can switch shifts with other people. So...... I work all the holidays that people want off, like Christmas, March Break, New Years etc. Sometimes I work 72 hours a week ( like this one ) I have an additional 5 weeks of vacation per year. I will be going for another 4 weeks next month, and just came back last Monday! I have been 15 times in the last 2 years!

I get tired while I am here, sometimes working up to 40 days without a day off, but it pays off in the end, when I can go to Jamaica and relax for 3 or 4 weeks at a time, without using all my vacation time. I dont know if that is an option for you, but it sure works for me!

JO

In all the years of writing I have never written a poem as fast as I have this one. This forum has been a great eye opener and has contributed to several chapters of my book. I leave with amazing insight into the intricacies of women to women interaction and the sad reality that in a garden paradise women are the indeed the reason why humans died in the creation story. Creators of life we are, yet so devilish that the enemy does not need much to tear us apart. We lack respect for personal reflection, and honesty. May your journey take you to your own personal truth, may the scars that remain remind you that you have lived and traveled an equal opportunity road. It would not be fitting if I did not submit a song that has kept me grounded.. keep me moving beneath the load.

I know who I am.
I walk with confidence though I am faced with the forces of hell....
I stand in the midst of the battle knowing that I am free.
I am beautiful, I am black
I a strong,
I am God and he is me
No SHADOWS can darken my path
for I am surrounded by pure light
I live and learn about trust
hold my life in anticipation of the terrors around the bend
yet remain true to my beliefs even if others seek to prosecute me
with eyes wide shut I drink from the spring of life
knowing the hand that embraces me may someday strangle me to death
So I walk on through muddy lake, leaving tracks behind
Never afraid to lead my enemies to face me, rip my heart out, be unkind
Each man or woman must face their destiny
each person must stand on their own feet
when truth causes you to suffer ill-will
Justice arrives on golden wings to deliver you
May I garner strength to suffer the inequalities of this world
and a gentle heart to love those who need me when they find out
I was not the enemy they wanted me to be
0r the coward they sought to bury beneath the load.

Without the love for self and country I would have committed suicide in this great land of "love" and "peace" I celebrate the fact that my daughters are my legacy and I have imparted pride, self-worth and brassiness that will help them stand up to these BITCHES! There is another way to say hello from time to time, Ready, and you know just how... my first positive connection, an equalizing force.. you have been and I was blessed to have met one other.

I need this word to show.. THE CENSORED WORD WAS

I feel the same way my dear... ur words have brought me through some very rough times. ..I have both humbled and enlightened me in many ways...you have always been straight eith me ....its a pitty that others don't take the time to see u for eho u are butttt I must say we come from a different time. ..during my process we fought like cats and dogs but make someone get a generic email from kingston all was forgotten and a celebration was on....so many times I have sat reading and saw someone post good news and are ignored .....this forum has changed ..... n the people who have been here the longest tend to be the victim of peoples wrath.....we are haters miserable negative etc when we keep it real

Things happen and some genuine relationships have suffered- to those who walked this path I say..be strong, you are under Jah's protective care. I married a man from my country, introduced to me by my father, spent the past eight years loving him and watching our lives unfold in surprising ways... He is my good morning and good night.. the love that makes me want to be a better person. Long after his dick stop working I will stroke his heart. If I have learned about hate, I learn much more about love. When individuals are ashamed of their "desperation" they will always be ready to attack. I don't really care, just surprised how someone could be brave enough to marry a man who they met in a resort(two days love) and call it a marriage, and be undone by a stranger who called the spade a hoe. To those who wish to waste their breath I say Fu**** you and good night Eve!

FRANKFIELD!
I don't think you have any respect for yourself and that's why you can speak the way you do sometimes such as the expletives you used! You love to talk about age and call people young and say you think that's why they do what they do. However since your so old and mature and smart you want to argue and feel the need to prove a point or yourself. Since you know who you are why do you need to prove it to anyone especially to people you don't know?! You talk about trust I would never trust you, look at how you talk about the person yesterday calling her desperate and saying she trust too easily! Who are you to judge someone relationship regardless of how, when they met and how long it took for someone to fall in love. Since there are so many good news getting ignored why don't that person come and congratulate everyone? Frankfield you call people weak because they choose not to pick a fight with you, what's the point of arguing with a complete stranger that doesn't make sense! Online too. I'm not a confrontational person and I rather walk away than trying prove a point that's not worth it! I'm too classy to do all that. You made a comment after a post I made about me logging out because I don't want to see you negative post that not relevant at all. You made a sarcastic comment like good luck with interview. SAVE IT! Don't need your well wishes! You feel your a teacher or educator of some sort, guess what your not! And speak the way you do. You love it when people take your side, if you were so strong as you claim to be you need no one on your side! You love to call people ignorant in your comments when truly you are the ignorant person! You get very angry and you can't control your temper or else most of the post you made wouldn't have been posted in the first place. I could careless who want to give me +1 or -1 because I'm not here for that! You are a bully that's what you are!!! One day you are going to meet your match, you love to talk down to people I notice that about you. I You love to talk about marriages going to fail or work, while that maybe true you wanna talk like you know the reasons why they will which ever way. Your prob bitter because your husband prob cheated and lied to you and you can't believe other s relationship going so well. You talk jealous too and maybe your the desperate one! Don't worry soon as your so call friends cross you you'll stabbed them in the back too or spill whatever they confided in you! You talk about you bokk I bet it won't become a best seller HAHAHAH smart ass!!! I will never ever apologized to you for nothing. NEVER!

I know when to choose my battles and I can go and come on this forum whenever I please regardless of that I say. Fighting a battle online is so stupid. Frankfield you may have the last word many times but that doesn't mean I'm scared or weak. Sometimes thing are better left unsaid regardless of that so overrated freedom of speech thing! Sometimes I would post and I say to myself why bother how about doing something else that's actually worthy of my time. But now I have a bit of time to waste on here so I 'm letting it all out! sophisticated people do not need to fight like cats and dogs! Period!
