I Know We All Hate It, And Yet We Never Understand It
I am Jamaican, I won't ever have enough money to find food to eat !? I am Jamaican, I'm not allowed to tell any person they aren't great for me !? I am Jamaican, not the tourist Jamaican - but the "Market Vendor" Jamaican !? The "Market Vendor Jamaican"!? Yes I know it means I'm ruining every person's effort, the ones who slaved and made it possible to live the life they have chosen !? But others made it work, and so I am Jamaican !?

Debate
Deciding if it's prudent to spend time with family is causing quite the stir in my head (not that I need it grayer.) Really overthinking this from every angle most likely, weighing out every pro and con for every single issue.
