Journal Entry: April Rose Seiber-11/08/2024

Journal Entry

As of 11/8/24, I am feeling better about myself as a person. I can say with confidence that I have grown tremendously this past year. I recently had to face a setback in here and pretty much start over. I usually would have just given up or became negative in my thinking. However, I have continued to work on myself and my release plan instead. I am remaining positive and using my time wisely. I have got a Buddhist mentor and a Mathematics mentor. I have written several people seeking other mentors in various areas to broaden my horizons. I have also written several places from a prison resource list seeking various types of services such as: religious material, legal material, creative writing opportunities, positive pen pals, college information, etc. I am confident that with our new president there will be changes to the prison system and am staying even more focused in the hopes I may be released earlier than I think. I am grateful for the people in my life who believe in me and all the resources available from non-profits who take time to help people in my position. I am currently trying to enroll in a class Start your own business. I am going to set up my business plans for the future by the end of this month and seek advice on how to start preparing for my release.
