Hey, I just read your blog on craigslist. I was amazed. I am a 4 time felon with a strike in california. It aint no joke for sure. Im one of the nicest guys in the world but nobody cares about that. My history haunts me and affects my job hunting. Ive been doing time since Youth Authority so I know. I just recently joined the 15% in 2008. Im off parole now and trying to join the going back to school gang. Your story was very inspirational to this 32 yo 4 time convited felon with a strike in Cali
Most people don't understand the transition process where coming out of prison to a world that has changed leaves you lonely and angry and most get warped and end up going back to prison. There is no glamour to prison--it is isolation and living death. Fat girls with hair on their chest, giving you direct orders, telling you what to do. Remember that the worst day out here is better than the best day inside. It is over and best kept that way. Good luck.
I've written that expression down and carry it with me everywhere I go now. Its those few words thats are gonna keep me straight...Thank You!
