Dear Antoine, Thank you for your letters and sorry for not reponding earlier. I'll just respond to the last one...

Sorryto hear one pen pal's down and your spiritual mom gone mia, I guess that is missing in action? So right now, it's a bit late and thought provoking thoughts are be missing in this letter, but just a hello and more to come... Take care, and greetings Julia

I will try checking out “Becoming Ms. Burton” sometime soon. It sounds like it will be a very informative and deepening read, something to meditate on. Speaking of which, I’ll try checking out “prisonyoga.com” as well. Nice tips, William.
I typed “Damian Kevitt” into Google, and found a couple of articles on his “Finish the Ride” project. I’m pretty sure he’s the same individual that you mention. You can let me know if I’m talking about the same individual. Apparently, while on an ordinary biking trip, he was almost killed in a hit-and-run! Though his leg was amputated, he survived with spirit more than intact. He continues to cycle, hosting a “Finish the Ride” bike race in L.A. The race seems to be focused on raising awareness for bike safety, calling upon lawmakers to make roads bike-friendly, and nurturing spiritual strength and character in the face and aftermath of unexpected adversities. I admire Kevitt’s perseverance and courage in rebounding after his accident. He took his tragedy as an opportunity to spread love to others. Amazing. It sounds like he might be one of your inspirations for bringing mental collectedness and wholeness to your fellow inmates.
A quick update on my front: My birthday was about a week ago, at the time of writing this letter. One of my good friends got me a book called “Logicomix”. It’s a comic about Bertrand Russell, who was one of the foremost logicians, philosophers, and mathematicians of the 20th century. The comic has been a fun read so far. It details the personal journey of the man himself, one of the few who could justifiably claim the title to “Most Interesting Person”. But the comic also introduces the fundamentals of logic and mathematics to lay audiences. Perhaps works like “Logicomix” are a good way to stimulate intellectual and spiritual interest in contemporary consumerist culture.
Alright, that’s all for now. I will talk to you later, William.
