YOU! by Calvin French YOU! Magazine - Issue 2 | Page 7

E d it or’s No t e Want to begin by saying Thank You The support and love that has been constant since the launch of our publication has been so encouraging. We appreciate YOU! So much has happened in the past few months that has tested the resolve of our Caribbean neighbors, the storms wreaked havoc on many of our unspoiled tropical paradises, but the strength and unity of our island sisters and brothers has shown its true character once again. We dedicate this Issue of YOU to the Caribbean. Sun Sea and Sand is our life and blood, no one knows it better than us. What the fierce winds destroyed, the rain and sun will renew, and what the storm surges washed away, the new tide will cleanse. We are Caribbean Strong. This Issue of YOU focuses on what makes us special. Our unique fashion, music and culinary delights set us apart from the world. We showcase the Caribbean Spirit and Laughter. Fearless styles and Pulsing Energy. We can’t forget our Carnivals. As I write this note, Trinidad and Tobago is gearing up for the worlds greatest festival. The Soca, the Food, the Color, the Parade, the Steelpan, a coconut in the Savannah. Come “take ah taste” of some curry crab and callaloo, my sweet islands will always be ready for YOU! YOU!
