I just wanted to say, thanks for writing this. I found your words to be very evocative and I felt like I could get a sense of the individual person behind the words. In particular, the image of it being like a party where everyone is loud, you're never having fun, and the party guests never leave made me smile—it was a humorous way to describe it, and also painful, because you said "imagine" and I was like, "Yes, I can imagine that, and it sounds awful!" As someone who has never been incarcerated, but who really likes quiet and privacy, your words really hit home to me as I imagined how the lack of privacy, peace, and quiet would affect me.

It sounds like it would be challenging to anyone to find mental space to think one's own thoughts in your environment. I hope for you that you are able to find moments of peace and tranquility despite your surroundings. I believe that moments of quiet and reflection are so important to all of us, to allow us to grow and be in possession of ourselves, regardless of our circumstances. I wish the best for you!

Cheers,
VB in Massachusetts

Imagine being 22 and having everything to look forward to.........then imagine NOTHING!
Imagine being found in a dumpster like some unwanted garbage. Imagine the pain that those left behind must endure for ever. IMAGINE!
