A Few Words
I thought I would sit and pen a few words. I am sitting here listening to Prairie Home Companion on NPR. Earlier I finished a very good book by Anita Shreve entitled "The Weight of Water." I haven't spoken to anyone in several days. It's not that I'm being antisocial, I just don't feel up to talking with anyone. Dark storm clouds fill the sky and my mood this weekend has been as gray as the clouds I see outside my cell window. Sad and depressed as I am I struggle to remember that all things change. In my short lifetime some states have legalized gay marriage, recreational marijuana, a black President was elected and much more. So things do change for the better. I won't be in solitary confinement forever and one day the petty tyrants who rule my existence will have no power over me. My revenge will be to succeed, to surpass them all in wealth and fame one day. One day all those who hurt and abandoned me and were so cruel shall wallow in envy.

I'm glad you have written in. I always look for you here, thankfully the notification e-mails I receive from Btb by prescribing to your blog mean I always know as soon as your posts are uploaded. I'm pleased to see you're still looking for the light in the darkness, it's what I always do when things are looking bad for me. I liked all you had to say here, except for the very last line. You said ...One day all those who hurt and abandoned me and were so cruel ..."shall wallow in envy". I'd like to see you use all of your energy uplifting yourself and not wishing any negativity towards others, as cruel as they may have been towards you. Their pain is their own (and their actions indicate just that), their journeys are their own and they don't require any further negativity than you yourself do.
You're incredibly strong Jeremy. I've never known any person who has endured as much as you have and I'm thankful that you're still here with us. I'm so proud to call myself your friend & although you share your pain here, I always find comfort in your words.
Take care my friend. I'll be in touch again soon.
