It is a book of 470 pages divided in six parts that besides Sor Juana’s life and work, explain the difficulties of the time for an intellectual woman.

Yet as I grew up so did the city, I got to witness a town become a city, and it watched me transition from a kid to a young adult. Through this unique relationship I became more optimistic about the future. Like a plant that needs nourishment to grow a town needs money.

    Larry Gabriel is a columnist who frequently writes about topics that are in the best interest of Michiganders. Gabriel’s articles deal with an array of topics ranging from health to public parks to marijuana, and how the government and people themselves affect those topics. Gabriel often focuses on marijuana and its legalization as a common theme throughout many of his articles. Gabriel writes about marijuana activists, the DEA, medical marijuana patients, attorneys trying to keep marijuana illegal, voters, and government officials and how they are all intertwined by the fibers of marijuana and its status of legality. Gabriel addresses subtopics within the topic of marijuana such at the voters’ effects on marijuana (“Pot at the polls”)(“Pot is a winner”), the racism behind the War on Drugs (“Jim Crow’s drug war”), marijuana activists’ growing efforts for legalization (“Seeds of change”), and the confusion of marijuana on a federal level (“Marijuana and fish fries”)(“Don’t be dazed”).

    My favorite place when I was young was my house. We had a huge yard. In the yard there were many trees and flowers, and some of the trees were very big and tall. My family house was the only house that had so many big trees in the neighborhood. It was a big white house with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. My favorite room was the living. The living room is the first room when entering the house. This room is filled with very lively furniture. Comfortable, tan leather couches, colorful rugs over the bare wood floor, and a large display case with pictures, books, and many memories of friends and family. And I mustn’t forget about the enormous window that, during the day, will let as much sunlight and energy in the room as it possibly can. I used to lie on the couch to read a book, or have a nice afternoon nap.…

    My favorite place is Old Harbour, Jamaica. Old Harbour is a small town approximately 30 miles west of Kingston, the capital of Jamaica. Originally called Esquivel, after its Spanish founder, it was famous for shipbuilding. Old Harbour Bay, as the locals call it, is the largest fishing village on the southeast side of the island. Here you will find, many locals congregating in the open air market, awaiting the arrival of the fishermen to return from the “sea” with the day’s freshest catch. While sipping “Red Stripe”, I see local fishermen coming ashore with their precious cargo (fish, crab, lobster, and conch) in their old, shabby worn fishing boats. Immediately, the fish scaler’s, who have waited patiently for hours, begin to work for their money and/or food for the day. I am amazed by the varying colors of skin tones, Jamaicans of African descent (dark brown skin), East Indian descent (fair complexion), known as “Coolie”, and Chinese descent (light complexion), sometimes called “Chiney”. Although “Countrymen” now, each brings a skill set from traditions of past generations in net and boat mending techniques. I watch in utter amazement, as a fisherman uses antiquated tools and techniques for repairing his boat. I close my eyes and listen to the sensual and sultry sounds of reggae music. I hear seagulls squawking about and in the distance, faintly hear the sounds of children’s laughter, as the aroma of fish frying, steamed lobster and crab, permeate the air. As the sun begins to set, a warm breeze blows in from the “sea”, I think to myself, how astounding the beauty and peacefulness of Old Harbor Bay!…
