Early morning melancholy - just missing you - the feel of your arms around me - hearing your even breaths as you sleep. We have thrown so much away - or lost it by taking it for granted - and yet we still have so much. I believe in God's forgiveness - not sure if I always have (probably not, or I would have lived a better life) but I do now. I believe that He sent His son and that if we have faith that we are saved. I pray that you believe as well, because that is our chance to be together for eternity. I pray for you - and for me. I love you :)
I was so very glad you contacted me again!:) At the point I had to look again to your profile and read and see all you wrote in the past.I wrote to a few other inmates on this blog, and there are some who never respond, so... As I lately wrote to another Daniel on d/r. I can only write letters to him on his address, no emailing.He's a prisoner in LA. Louisiana and I found him on this blog too.I guess he never got any answer on the blog, since 2013.:(( My letter to him was such a surprise! The whole time I felt so happy because I reached out to a person in need.As you say yourself,Daniel,we feel better when helping people.And you only know when you do.:)
To you now. 20 yrs in solitary confinement... not to be believed...:o At least you see people when you go to a shower or on the yard, Daniel?It is very sad to hear nowadays such barbaric conditions exist!.. I hope as you do, they're working at it,and more humanity comes in its place. I am impressed by your positivism and your belief!Never doubt to help others; the words you speak will be forgotten within time.. but the actions you took, won't; people recall how good it felt when you helped them. Humanity,art,charity,justice,people,life,music,poetry,the world we live in;all subjects that are of my uttermost interest, Daniel!!So,tell me things about those? I am all ear!:))) Did I wrote you I am an artist?I was following courses at an Academy of Art in Belgium,(BE),for 7 yrs!Drawing and oil painting.When before that I lived in Utah(3yrs) and later in Ohio(4yrs),I was taught watercolor by an American teacher.Later I added colored inkts too, called Ecoline. When coming from Argentina(Buenos Aires)- we lived there almost 6 yrs-; there I had solo exhibitions,I fell in a gap, so to say.Stopped painting.:(That was coming back to Antwerp(en),BE,a port city. I will end my writings here.I can write you a letter.It might take a while tough. Have a great day, Daniel, and I will remain in touch.
Hey kid Im in Ma. just learned of this site while reading a book of a young man who was sent to prison for a murder he committed in Ma. I guess I just wanted to say hello, maybe add some cheer to your day. I chose you randomly just by reading differant bios. Tell me more about yourself?
We each transcribed a post for our undergrad seminar. I chose yours because I'm lately rediscovering the world in the context of attachment, love, forgiveness, and self-awareness too. I hope you know to direct those at yourself as you go along, not just at others. You deserve it just as much.
I did get your letter dated 4/17/16 - It was a lovely April 20th I had. Lit up in the yard surrounded by leaves left on the ground from last October. Too bad my son won't be able to bother asking for an intra-state transfer. First off, I wouldn't give Mass-Hole-Chusetts Dept of Misery Injectors the satisfaction of being able to fill another one of their torture rack$. My son, in the blessed state of Ohio, is in an Honor dorm (right out of the gate because I chewed their fucking asses out publicly over where he was going to spend his 15-life), where he is allowed to own a bass guitar, and they'll even let him get a 6-string to boot. He recently acquired a small mixing amp. No fewer than 5 other of his dorm-mates have a similar privilege. Nobody locks anything up. Not even the store-guy.
More than one 'expert' has confirmed that MassHOleChusetts Do' Corruption does not allow more than a certain number of inmates to own a guitar of any kind, and that if you want an instrument, you must wait until one other inmate who HAS that privilege, is discharged or otherwise dispatched. I'm betting none of these musical instrument possessors are allowed to actually BE in possession of their instrument any time they want, amiright? They probably have to wait until the admin metes them out a precious hour of practice time. If not for some extraordinary McGuyver measures to create entertainment and industry, your bunkmates may as well be given sheepfolds to live in and loincloths.
My son, on the other hand, can plunk away on his Tobias Toby (cherry Mahogany - Musicians Friends' basic house-brand)all day if he wants. (Now, understand, for now, my son is 'a murderer'.) He is in 2 bands. His warden (who told me he wished he had 2000 guys like my son) is going to let his 2 bands play the ODOC car-show/employee picnic in August if all goes well - and it looks like it's going well. He also runs their 3x/week meditation class. My son is allowed magazines. Books. My son is happy. He said "Wow, Mom. I'm actually relieved; for now, it's about as good as prison can get, I imagine. I'm actually happy enough. I don't feel abnormally abused."
WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM MASSACHUSETTS>?????? You cannot do better than that????? I don't know, man. I have to say, I've never been more ashamed to be from this state. You got harsh and cold. Nothing to be proud of.
Massachusetts; the bastion of liberty, liberalism, progressivism. The birthplace of the nation. Your prisoners are miserable, forlorn, in constant danger, mismanaged, misappropriated, abused, ignored, taunted. How fucking lame you became. Pitiful. Letter to follow. Take care, Bubba!
