The Rhino-06/06/2025

Time at Cimmaron: My time spent at Cimmaron was interesting. I have not ever been or experienced incarceration.

I did not have anything to compare to it nor did I have any preconceived ideas […]

June check in for prison professor I am trying to maintain a positive outlook. Some times that is easier than other times. My goals for month of May were not met. We were on “lock down” for 3 weeks. Lock down means sit on your bunk all day, stay out of the day room, no […]

Never in my life have I encountered, yet alone lived among such a diverse group of people, not only in terms of demographics, but also ethnicity, culture, education and general background.

Once again it has been sometime since I have journaled. I never expected to be this busy especially in here, but the reality is that I’m busy. The reason that I’m busy is that I have set some lofty goals for myself which include; educational, mental, physical, and spiritual. Now I have started RDAP which […]

Fernando Cordova-06/05/2025

I never realized how long the effects of the things I have been through or have seen affect me. I started to reflect on the trauma I have caused others through my selfish and negative actions. How they are dealing with all I have done and the help they may need to get past these […]
