Thanks for writing! I finished the transcription for your post. I'm sorry I couldn't get all the words correctly, I didn't get all the spelling right! I hope you have a chance to see your family soon. Take care!
That song was so prominent in our parting of ways. As for Ellies statement of me getting mad about her writing is only half true. I get mad because of her extreme talent of pulling you into the story only to leave it unfinished and wanting more. Also the fact that she only wants to write when there are chores to be done. I do hope this new year has treated you well so far. I sadly got the flu but have recovered mostly. I pray its not an omen of how the rest of the year will be. Take care of yourself
I think the next hearings are soon (I have to check the internet to see if they have been published).
It is a long time coming....and (you already know this!) when the change comes it will be another step down program. (Unless there is a court remedy). (That's my take on it, anyway).
I wish there was another way....but there is not. Folks out here (in the country) remain angry, I think, at felons and have no interest/belief in change. That hurts you- of course - but us, too, as a society.
I wonder if you've given some thought to the violence in the CA. prisons and how to reduce it. I know that when folks are in prison, they group off - and if they've done that on the streets, too, well - it's worse in prison.
What do you think would help? Do you regret the groups that you've joined in the past? (Can you write about that? If not, I understand).
I'm just curious about your thoughts - and ideas. What would you tell someone who is 15 about making choices/decisions for his future.
I hope you get compassionate leave and are able to spend time with your loved ones soon. :)
