Water
In all the columns so far, I have tackled issues surrounding government accountability and management, and I want to continue that in this column, as promised last week, with a look at water. I was born in Boscobel St. Peter and grew up in a house without water or electricity.
To this day, I remember bringing water home in a little brown plastic bucket from a nearby standpipe. It is interesting the memories that stay with you and anchor your perspectives on life and its meaning.
