Listen To My Voice
NOTE: My poem is in the image.
I am traveling somewhere in this poem. If you can't figure it out, the answer will be in small print at the bottom right.
Here is the text version! Please try to guess where I am before reading the bottom!
Truly, I did the most I could do.
Oh, how the prophecy can fail
if you fail to make the right choice.
I feel like a necklace is being ripped
from my neck. Just like the soul of the human being
was ripped from God.
In these miserable, purple garments I law here.
These dry spikes are like the hearts
of the Jewish people. My people. My children.
Why is my garment drenched in blots?
You ridicule me loudly, but I reply in silence.
As this prison gets smaller, my heart for the providence
grows. Truly, I did the most I could do.
Traveling location: Jesus's Crown of Thorns

Jorge Cuello Espinosa is a proud Unificationist who lives in the Bronx, NY. He is the younger of two sons and is originally from the Dominican Republic. Jorge studies Justice Studies as an undergrad of Berkeley College. Jorge has worked with the NYC Healthy Relationship Training Academy since August 2010, and he is confident that he will impact society and help bring change to the world through educating with this academy. He is adamant that with the help of the Heavenly Parent he can be an agent of change--as a Peer Educator, re-entry officer or Unificationist preacher. Being a Peer Educator has opened his heart to what his hidden potential is in life, public speaking. He says that the best part of doing these workshops is talking about the ideal relationships. Jorge found that we all look for the same things to achieve happiness in life and that Trust, Respect and Equality is how true love can grow in our family and society.
