Altes Damiscat Grandchamps - 20 Aug 2003:

Dear Haiti:

Although the past 200 years have not been good for you, I am looking forward to see a new image of you. I am hoping that the sons and daughters you have raised and educated would finally put themselves together and come to your feet to do a mea-culpa for all the pains and misery they have done to you. Long ago, you were so strong that you had taught history and principle to the world. Please, come back and show to the world that you are still strong. I will be there to celebrate your 200th birthday. I am hoping that when I come to celebrate your birthday you will remember this son who lives far away from you, and who never betrayed you. Thank you so much Haiti for the life, love, education, and values you have given to me.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HAITI
