The next decade....what's in store?

"Help!.......Help!"

You should hear me the other day on my way to work shouting "help!.....help!" very loudly.

Here's what happened.

I walk to work as you know. When I reached down the road, I looked into a yard where three dogs were lying down. I've told you already that the dogs in Grenada are pretty docile. You can walk beside them on the road and they don't even look up at you.

Well this dark brown one decided he was going to rush at me. I looked up and he just immediately rushed to the open gate. I saw somewhere that you musn't run. So I didn't. I just stood in the road and shouted "help!......help!". After several shouts, someone in the house next door looked out. It was the secretary from work. She told me not to worry, the dog is not going to bite me. Yeah right. You're talking to a girl who has been once bitten.

So I stood up there with her trying to coax me from her balcony. Eventually, she got the message that I wasn't moving, so she was very kind and came over to me to escort me down the road. She assured me that the dog would not bite me. And you know, since then, the dog don't even as much as look my way!

It's funny how when you know the outcome of a seemingly dangerous situation, you are not afraid. I am not afraid.
