Haiti's Hidden Destruction

se'qui · #1 (**permalink**) 03-05-02, 10:32 PM

HELLO EVERYONE, I HOPE YOU TAKE THE TIME TO READ AND UNDERSTAND MY OPINION OF THE ON GOING PLAGUE IN HAITI.

TO START I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THAT I WAS BORN AND RAISED IN BROOKLYN NEW YORK. I HAVE NEVER BEEN TO HAITI, BOTH MY ARE HAITIAN, THEREFORE, I CONSIDER MYSELF TO BE HAITIAN. MY REASON FOR SAYIN THIS IS BECAUSE MANY HAITIANS WHO WERE BORN AND RAISED IN HAITI DO NOT ACCEPT ME TO BE HAITIAN. I WAS BORN IN THE U.S., MY PARENT 100% HAITIAN AND I WAS RAISED WITH HAITIAN PRINCIPLES AND TRADITION, AND WAS ABLE TO CORRECT MY HAITIAN FAULTS WITH MY AMERICAN LIFE STYLE.

I DON'T HAVE TO LIVE OR VISIT HAITI TO KNOW ITS PROBLEMS, MOST OF THE HAITINS WHO COME TO THE U.S. REVEAL 99% OF HAITI'S PROBLEMS.

1. HAITIANS DO NOT ACCEPT EACH OTHER

2. HAITIANS DO NOT VALUE EACH OTHERS OPINION

3. HAITIANS DO NOT LIKE TO SEE EACH OTHER PROGRESS

THESE ARE DANGEROUS CHARACTERISTICS.

THESE CHARACTERISTICS ARE BEING PAST ON FROM GENERATION TO GENERATION AND GETS WORST EVERYTIME.

HOW CAN HAITI OVER COME THEIR CIVIL WAR?

LIKE THE U.S. SUPPORT YOUR OWN. WHEN SOMEONE IS TRYING TO BUILD SOMETHING WHETHER IT IS A DANCE OR BUSINESS ENCOURAGE THEM. LET THEM KNOW THAT THEY CAN DO IT. IF THEY NEED A SMALL CONTRIBUTION, HELP THEM EVERY CENT COUNTS.

IF YOU CAME TO THE U.S. FOR AN EDUCATION, GET IT AND USE IT IN HAITI WHERE IT IS NEEDED. FIND INVESTORS TO HELP YOU BUILD A FUTURE FOR HAITI USING THE KNOWLEDGE YOU GAINED.DO NOT LISTEN TO THE NEGATINE REMARKS ABOUT HAITI IS NOT A GOOD PLACE TO GO BACK TO, BECAUSE OF ITS CURRENT POLITICAL STATUS.(I KNOW WEST INDIANS AND 100% BLACK AND WHITE AMERICANS THAT LIVE IN HAITI AND WILL NOT COME BACK TO THE U.S.) DO NOT HATE ANY ONE BECAUSE THEY HAVE MORE THAN YOU. FIND WAY TO USE HIS KNOWLEDGE TO MAKE A BETTER LIVING FOR YOURSELF. A BUSINESS MAN IS ALWAYS LOOKING FOR MORE BUSINESS.

FINALLY, THE MAJOR STEP THAT NEEDS TO BE TAKEN. HAITI HAS BEEN THROUGH MANY GOVERNMENTS AND SO HAS THE REST OF THE WORLD. THE PROBLEM HERE IS THERE IS A PLAGUE THAT COME FROM THE OLDER GENERATIONS AND CAN BE STOPPED, BUT NOT BY ANY HAITIAN. THE LEADER THAT HAITI IS LOOKING FOR IS A YOUNG (NOT TOO YOUNG) AND POWERFUL VOICE. ONE THAT IS NOT INFLUENCED BY FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS, ONE THAT CAN REDUCE THE POVERTY LEVEL AND CREATE JOBS, ONE THAT CAN BRING MONEY INTO THE COUNTRY, BUT THE HARDEST PAST IS TO GET THE INFECTED OLDER GENERATIONS TO COOPERATE, SUPPORT, AND BELIEVE THAT THEIR NEW LEADER WITH GUIDE THEM THROUGH THE STORM.

UNTIL THE CITIZENS OF HAITI ACCEPT AND VALUE THEIR NATIONALITY THERE WILL BE NO PEACE IN GOVERNMENT.

I PRAY FOR A BALANCED GOVERNMENT IN HAITI SOON, AND HOPE THAT ALL HAITI BLOOD NO MATTER WERE YOU WERE BORN POPULATE HAITI AND MAKE IT A NUMBER COUNTRY TO LIVE AND VISIT. I AM STILL WAITING TO SEE THE HAITIAN VACATION THAT IS AS BIG AS THE COME TO JAMAICA, BAHAMAS, AND HAWII COMMERCIALS IN THE U.S.

THANKS FOR YOUR TIME

AND SORRY TO ALL THOSE WHO ARE OFFENDED

Hello SE'QUI,

I really don't think you have offended anyone. As long as a person loves Haiti, I think he/she will agree with everything you have said. I am very proud to see how a young haitian-american feels.

I think if we all put our heads together we can make a difference in Haiti. The people need to be educated in Haiti. After being under oppression for so long it doesn't matter who and with what type of views someone comes with I don't think it will work. As long as the people have the same mentality that they have Haiti will not progress. It is up to us young people to start going back to Haiti and educate the peolpe. Try to teach them that it is not because someonelse has and I don't have I have to hate the person or if I have it is ok to try to help someoneelse that doesn't have and not trying to keep them down.

I think when we as a people understand that it doesn't matter if one is poor or rich we can work together or having different views is ok, Haiti will not progress. We always try to compare the United States with Haiti. Always asking why can't we be like them?. In The US we have the democrats, Republicans and the Liberals, it doesn't matter how they disagree, but when the time comes for them to put their heads together to work for the welfare of the country, there is no Demograts, Republicans or Liberals but only Americans. It is time for us Haitian to think of ourselves as Haitians not as political party members.

Thanks,

Anacaona

Lord knows that these's things are true about us haitians. That is something that can not be doubted by any. When things like that are put into dicussion it will put everything with that along with the what's being dicussed on the table. I there's anyone who is offended by this subject by any means then I believe that they fall into the catogory with the list you have made on how certian haitians act. Many people say that "Oh it's in my blood, I'am haitian". This at many times is taken as an excuse to have something to blame about the way that they act. If we all want progress we have to put or act together so that something can come out of the things that we do to better ourselves and especially Haiti. We as the youth of TODAY and not tomorrow need to do something. Many grown ups may say oh there is no hope for haiti. I knowing how my relationship with God is and the things that he can do, there is no limit. When we down and discourage ourselves due to what other think and say about us then that's where you can say that there is no hope. I've been raised to have a connection to God and taught that there is noting or no one in this world from stopping me in doing what is good. I may no have the proper means to get through in life like I want but I'm making it. I may not be a person with high intelligence but that does not stop me from educating myself and the others around me, I may not be big and famous but that does not stop me from leaving a good infulence on another. As I see it the country lacks God 99% totally. When you stand with God there's none aganist you. Remember, Union Fait La Force, the theme on our haitian flag something that was long forgotton by many. We need not dwell on the past and about the negative things that others have to say. If they cannot extend a helping hands then their opinions does not have to be put into consideration. Of course not all countries are perfect nor can haiti reach that level but we have to know where we stand before GOD and how we stand.

You guys should read Amiproneoca's experience in "Ne plus subir: AGIR" and think about reality not myths.

TO ZENGLENDO:

ITS NICE TO SEE THAT YOUR SCREEN NAME REPRESENTS A PLACE THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO MAKE KNOWN. HOWEVER, YOUR FAITH IS A DESTRUCTION TO THIS PLACE YOU LOVE ( I SAY LOVE BECAUSE YOU REPRESENT IT WITH PRIDE BY MAKING IT YOUR SCREEN NAME AND INTERACT WITH PEOPLE USING IT) YOUR OPINION DOES NOT INFLUENCE ANYONE TO DO BETTER AS A WHOLE FOR THE COUNTRY. I BELIEVE POSITIVITY IS THE MAIN INGREDIENT TO ALL MATTERS. FOR EX: IF YOUR HAVE FAITH IN JESUS THEN YOU BELIVE IN GOD. BUT IF YOU BELIEVE THAT SIN WILL ALWAYS PREVAIL, THEN YOU BELIEVE IN SATAIN. TO CLEARIFIY WHAT IM SAYING TO YOU, AND TO ALL WHO THINK LIKE YOU, THE DESTRUCTION IS IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER. IF YOU TRULY BELIEVE THAT THEIR IS NO RESOLUTION FOR HAITI, THEN THERE WILL BE NONE. I BELIEVE THERE IS A RESOLUTION AND I BELIVE IT IS NEAR, BUT YOU WILL NOT SEE IT UNTIL YOU SHOW THE TRUE LOVE YOU GIVE TO THAT SCREEN NAME OF YOURS. ZENGLENDO, IF YOU CAN'T USE THE LORDS NAME IN VAIN, THEN YOU CAN'T USE HIS PEOPLE, PLACE OR THINGS IN VAIN. DO THE SAME ONTO YOU CAUSE WE ARE OF HIS IMAGE. I HOPE YOUR NOT OFFENDED CAUSE WE NEED YOU. THE POSITIVE YOU.

Well said, se'qui. I could not have put it any better. Some of us only believe in belittleing each other without realizing that by disrespecting a fellow Haitan, politician or not, we are really disrespecting ourselves. You see, others will treat us the same way we treat each other.

When a Haitian is humiliated anywhere, it's not just one Haitian that gets humiliated, all Haitians are humiliated.

THANKS CHZ99

AS OF TODAY 206 PEOPLE HAVE READ THIS THREAD. WHETHER OR NOT THEY REPLIED, THEY HAVE ALL BEEN EFFECTED BY IT.WHAT YOU POSTED CHZ99, SUMS IT ALL UP. EVERY NATION HAS GOOD AND BAD, BUT THE KEY TO IT ALL IS TO REVEAL THE GOOD AND THE GOOD ONLY, UNTIL ALL IS GOOD. WHETHER WE LIKE IT OR NOT, OTHER COUNTRIES SEE US AS A WHOLE, SO WHEN WE "HUMILIATE"(QUOTING CHZ99) ONE ANOTHER, OTHER COUNTRIES JUDGE US AS A WHOLE, HAITIAN. SO THE ONLY PEOPLE THAT CAN GIVE HAITIANS A BAD NAME ARE HAITIANS. PERSONALLY, I WOULD LOVE TO SEE EVERYONE TALKING ABOUT HOW NICE AND BEAUTIFUL HAITI IS, AND HOW WONDERFUL THE PEOPLE ARE, AND THEN TURN ON THE T.V. IN THE U.S.A. AND SEE COMMERCIALS OF TRAVEL AGENTS SELLING VACATIONS TO HAITI.

I was wondering when someone other than myself would say that. I'm glad and if you truely look at it then it's true you can serve 2 masters. It either your for or aganist. It brings me to this. In the New Testament in the Bible when Jesus was casting out devils (evil sprits) from this man, some of the ones in particular the pharasies said that Jesus cast out the evil sprits with belzubub the prince of devils. Jesus answered and said back to him you a kingdom cannot be divided amoung itself, by that the kingdom will not be stable and fall apart. Satan is the cause of us going through all this turmoil and thats the main issue with haiti. Satan was kicked out of heaven because of the jelously he had towards Michale (Jesus). He was kicked out an started his own kingdom with the other fallen angles. How can one be so blinded and serve the prime one who has us in all this havoc. I'm not going to excuse myself because theres no need to. A person has to be out of their right mind to serve such a lie, and knowing that they already lost, satan faith is already sealed and I believe if there is one out there who want's to see resolution and serves satan is crazy b/c it will not happen. Read revelations the last book of the bible if my words are not enough, as a matter of fact it's God who says so. Dispite all that we do God stills loves us, he allows such things to happen because we let it happen when he called from out of the darkness many decided to say and be blind, we can find our way with out a guide. God is my guide, and I believe that if haiti is going to leave the poor condition that it's in then you yourself will make a choice ( the right one I suppose) then will haiti be resored by the grace of God. Haiti needs to be inflitrated from all the evil that it has to become what it was.

God the creator of all good, satan destructor. He deserves no praise not none of any kind. I cant even start to explain how much this bothers me and what it does. Unfortunally many do not see what they do to themselves and what desolation that they bring among themselves. God my rock and my salvation.

L'Eternel est mon lumiere et mon salut. De qui aurais-je crainte? Si un armee se campait contre moi, Mon coeur n'aurait aucune crainte. Espere en L'Eternel. Fortife toi et que ton coeur s'affermissel. Espere en L'Eternel.Ps:27

L'Union fait la Force a quote that we all need to remember as haitians. Only with God then will our union have force.hw8
