    Writing an article that features me Is not a task I do easily First, here are some extracts from a faded CV. Born nineteen hundred and ………. three, I started my career as an audit trainee And qualifi ed at twenty-three. I planned to retire when I made my fi rst million (mistakes) Or at (whichever came fi rst) fi fty-three: But I already got there, fairly easily:) I am a widow and mother of three. I have many dreams, many And one is to see The Caribbean region thrive in unity.
