Forty-four years of nationhood is a significant milestone for any nation. These are the words of Apostolic Administrator for the Diocese of Roseau Archbishop Gabriel Malzaire. He says it provides an opportunity to look back and examine its successes and failures as a nation; an opportunity for us to ask ourselves, where are we amid a rapidly changing world on the social, economic, technological, and religious/spiritual levels and the like.He states, it is often said that change is the only constant thing in this world. The simple reason is that life is on a continuum; it is going somewhere and unable to stop in midcourse. In our occasional nostalgic moments, when we reflect on what we regard as the good old days, we easily fall into the trap of wishing that time would stop for just a while, to savor the goodness/sweetness of the past. However, the mind jolts us into reality and forces us to focus on present needs stating that this year’s theme: One Dominica, One People, One Vision, provides great impetus for reflection on what we wish to be as a nation.
