Today has been as usual, nothing happening at the OTC. They have no books to better ourselves as a person. They only have fictional books. I am not able to write a book report on how a book helped me because they are all about vampires or imaginary places(those are the kind i like to […]

I’ve recently started reading and using a GED book to refresh my memory. For the past week I’ve been studying math. I got my GED back in 2008 and I really haven’t done much since. I did enroll in college a year before my arrest but I ended up here instead of with a degree. […]

What changes in America’s prison system would you like to implement? I have experienced the American prison system because I am currently a Federal Adult In Custody.

I know why from a spiritual standpoint why some people act the way they do, why some people have difficult problems and why evil can get so out of control in certain communities.

Another day I can appreciate what I have learned and how to apply it. When I thought I would be without, I was actually fine with it, before I would have been really upset and angry at everyone although it is not their fault. I am happy with myself that I have grown enough to […]
