Testing...

I must admit, I have avoided techonology trends, but I am captivated by the idea that you can affect millions of people through 'blogging.' This first post is for people to get an idea of who I am. I need to avoid 'airing my dirty laundry' as my mom calls it, so as not to dishonour her.

Well... I am from Jamaica, but I am currently in Leeds, England pursuing my PhD. I am in my 2nd year (one year to go and I cannot wait). I am the youngest of 3. I have a sister and a brother. My sister is in Jamaica, my brother is in Fort Lauderdale. The relationship with my brother is strained, and has been for over 13 years. In a way, he is the reason why I started blogging, because I want him to know that I still love him and we're looking forward to the day that he and his family contacts us.

For years we didn't know where he was. We knew that he was married and he had a little boy, who is now a teenager! I can't believe it! But yesterday for the first time in 10 years, I spoke to him. I heard his voice, and even though he wasn't very pleased to hear my voice - I still see it as an answer to prayer!

This is why I've entitled my blog as 'Walking in Faith.' I am a Christian and I believe that God will restore our family. I have been praying since the beginning of this year, for resolution and restoration for my family. A lot of milestones are happening this year (my dad turning 70, my sister giving birth in August) and I pray that my brother and his family contacting us and making us a complete family will be one of them.

So I hope that you will walk with me in this journey of faith and see what good things God will do :o)
