_A Bit Shook Up!_

It seems as though it has been ages since last I sent in a blog,
but it has only been 12 days. I have been in a daze since I
received a letter from my cousin Marv who sent me a photo, one
that has become my most valued possession. My youngest boy,
Asheton, now age 13.

At times we can ignore all that we have lost in life, the wrong
choices, the destruction that we've created. Then BAM! We get
hit in the face with it, and pain becomes to tame a word to
describe what it is we feel. That is where I have been, lost
in a sea of pain that was unbearable, yet I seem to have survived
and here I am, back trying to make each day count for good,
or at the very least to do no harm.

I just wrote to four good friends, well one family member and
three good friends. I have hit the 10 years wall, as we call
it in here. I am in my tenth year of incarceration and it is
at this point that even the truest friends tent to fall away.
For some unknown reaSON I haven't had that happen. Even when
I don't have the heart to keep up with my correspondence my folks
all hang in there.

My plan is to really begin to blog regular, at least two or
three times per week. My job has been cut, my caring for a
sick celie has come to an end and I have a lot to say. Please
pray for me, as I pray for all who may read this blog.

Be well and know that he will cause all to work together for
the good of all those who love Him.

Num. 6:24-26
