Hello You! It's the weekend again and we are about to head out the door, have a lime maybe sipping a drink or just enjoy the bliss of the weekend where it may be. But, there are always caution when having fun. Live. But live responsibly. Friday is to release the worries of the previous week so don't add the worries of the future to the mix. Happpy Friday!
Friday Night Truth
It’s Friday in the BVI.
The sun is leaning into the sea,
music drifting from the bars,
glasses clinking,
Wine loosens,
laughter spilling into the warm night air.
The island looks beautiful tonight.
But beauty doesn’t cancel truth.
Because somewhere in these same streets
are stories of dishonesty,
love spoken carelessly,
promises traded like drinks at the bar,
bodies shared without honesty.
What leaves the bars
doesn’t always stay in the night.
It walks out in perfume and cologne,
in laughter too loud,
in secrets whispered over rum and dim lights.
But what begins in the bar
often ends in the bedroom or the back room,
And not every story told, there is honest.
Some carry lies between their lips.
Some carry promises meant for someone else.
Some carry silence where truth should live.
And sometimes,
they carry more than just themselves.
Because betrayal doesn’t stop at the heart.
It travels deeper.
Through bodies.
Through trust.
Through the quiet spaces where love
was supposed to be safe.
Diseases don’t care about excuses.
They don’t care about “it was just one night.”
Or “they meant nothing.”
They move the same way dishonesty does,
quietly,
recklessly,
leaving others to carry consequences
they never agreed to.
Bars will always pour drinks.
Bedrooms will always close doors.
But character?
Character is what you carry
between the two.
Cheating doesn’t just break hearts.
It breaks trust.
It spreads silence.
And sometimes… it spreads sickness.
Friday night is for joy.
For dancing.
For living.
But the strongest thing a person can bring
into the night
is honesty.
Because protecting each other
is the real way
we protect the island. Happpy Friday!🌴✨
