The Life And Struggles Of A Jamaican Woman

By Barbara Shields

The Life and Struggles of a Jamaican Woman is a real life story of struggles, hardships, hope, and faith. In this no holds barred self-disclosure, Barbara retraces the story of her birth, family, early childhood, and epic episodes of passion, finding and losing love. Barbara recounts employment discoveries and mishaps, mistreatments, and close calls with death in face of armed robberies in the workplace. The book outlines personal sacrifices, struggles, losses, and the demonstration of great love for her children. Despite some misunderstandings and unfortunate outcomes, Barbara, in true fashion of strength and character, boasts of her children and now relishes every moment she is able to spend with her beautiful grandchildren. The Life and Struggles of a Jamaican Woman is also about courage as Barbara set out on a Journey from Jamaica to the Great North, Canada, in search of a dream deferred. This constant desire to press on through is a clear indication that this Jamaican woman, though knocked down, knows how to get back up again and how to walk unwaveringly through the wilderness in pursuit of the Promise Land. In search of her dream and purpose, even with their delay, Barbara lives, hopes, worships, and continues to trust and wait on God for her breakthrough. Her mantra continues to be, "I don't mind waiting..."
