April 27, 2020: It is nice to hear kinds words and thoughts we don't hear them that often

I want to thank you and all who are involved in the project it is nice to hear kinds words and thoughts we don't hear them that often in here. I hope I can help you see what is like to face this and other hurtful set backs. People believe we are the trash of the world that we deserve what ever happens. Well we are not the heartless people we are made out to be.


We have loved ones and have made friends in here some who help us to move forward and some who weren't friends who held us back. My emotions are mixed I want the best for my family and for the many good men I have come to know in here. Thom who I have know since 1985 was a man who turned me around for the good helped me finish my G. E. D. so that I could take other classes like culinary arts and put a drive in me to achieve and not continue down the road to ruin.


Being in prison you learn to deal with different cultures and attitudes your forced to live with a heartless felon, or an white supremacist its hard to be sixty and live with a twenty something. We not only deal with the fear of loved ones or friends being hurt or infected we have to deal with bad attitudes and youngsters who hide their fear behind violence and threats. People out there are dealing with staying home, eating home cooked meals and having loved ones around them. Here we have to walk on egg shells and worry over friends who were sent to the isolation ward. Hearing and knowing someone died but you can't find out who or if it was someone you called friend.


I turned my life over to Jesus in 1997 and I've studied the bible from a dozen different correspondence courses and since September 1997 Jesus has done just what He said He would He freed me from addiction and had gave me a talent to work with dogs, wild critters and my beloved cockatiels of which five are in the nest box now I will be hand feeding them in week. So praise God I have went from negative to positive and even use the love I found to love my fellow man which I never did before. So again thank you and God bless your kind words and prayers. I enjoyed the classes I attended with you all and writing my stories. Take care God bless stay safe and healthy out there.
