1- There is so much power in the words that you speak and write. How you choose to use them is a choice. I want to uplift as well as build up people.
You never know how a person is feeling and YOU could be the reason:
They choose not to use drugs that day
They found something they like or actually love about themselves
talk someone off a bridge (alot more common in prison)
Put a SMILE on their face.
So how I choose my words and how I use my writing, is a reflection of me. Everything I do and say I hold myself accountable for.
2. Key message: I don’t do this program for FSA, Release points, or another tangible thing. I do it because I believe in it. I believe that everyone deserves a 2nd chance. Everything you put out in the universe, gets absorbed and blessings come back. I am not talking about money or getting out, I am talking about the blessing: that you have taken your life back in control and move forward helping others see the bigger picture. It isn’t always about us. If I can touch someone and help them in their life, that is a blessing.
3. This is a huge question, but to honestly say how my experiences and insights & Transformations will contribute to society:
Humbleness
Thankfulness
Being Grateful that I have a 2nd chance on life
Being able to share my testimony (on my bio) was life changing for me to go through – Imagine what that could do for someone else going through some of the same experiences I did either themselves or someone close to them. The hard work I have put in for the last 17 years with my art, can be obtainable to ANYONE who Believes in redirecting your pain and anger into something that can shape a persons future for the good.
I really just want to be able to share my testimony with the world and trying to get people to understand that this was a real thing that happened to me. But I overcame it, not by getting let out, but overcoming it from consuming me and drowning in the anger and hurt.
Thank you.
