So in a past letter you wrote to your son. Did he ever reply to you? You spoke of a grandson also does he only have the one child? You must be happy to reconnect with him. Also I might have missed it but can you explain how life has been for you behind bars and are you hopeful to get out at se point.
Hey Joe, I tried months ago to get hold of you but my letter came back. I use to work with you. My name is Gene Searcy and I worked in the same dept. as you. I worked with Herman S. and I always like hearing biblical words of wisdom from you. Just wanted to get in touch with you. I hope you are well. Get back in touch. Eugene
Hey there! I just finished transcribing your post about not hesitating to give loved ones their roses while they're still alive. Thank you for writing it.
You're right. So much has happened, and we're given only so many days in life. Sharing and giving love in our limited days with loved ones is a powerful and wonderful message. I hope more people will read it and act in the way you hope.
Dear Joe, I was sorry to read this was your final post. I find your writing to be well-spoken, articulate, informative, and entertaining. Think of this Joe, if your writing influenced one single person, just one, to change their path, your ministry is successful. Think of the power in your words! Your suffering is real, and it moves my heart. America needs criminal justice system reform so very badly, and some horrors of it would never see the light of day without forums like BTB, and inmates who demonstrate their vulnerability by sharing them. Just one Joe, if you only influenced just one, your pain is not in vain. Please reconsider your position and continue to fight for life, even a life that seems so full of pain and sorrow. You will find moments of joy, even if only a moment, with eyes wide open. It is true you have passed into a system without meaning and full of venom and hate. But you have not been abandoned, tonight I will pray you find some moments of joy. I write this in all sincerity. John
