Yeah it never seems to amaze me that no matter how many times I wake up,which is a blessing that God had giving me that opportunity to see life,even if it’s behind these walls of madness.I hate it that when my cell door pops open, I have to […]
In my personal life,or past career,I’ve always subscribed to traditional notions of masculinity. Work hard,be tough,succeed at all cost,be aggressive, don’t be emotional….you know the clichs. I’m a boy from Chicago, Illinois factory, farming,football,meat and potatoes kind of city. The way I was taught to deal with my […]
I sit here watching my TV seeing all the madness that is unfolding out there in this world today. Police killing unarmed civilian. One of the most events that sickens me is all the sexual assaults happening to these courageous women speaking out now.Kids killing kids in schools […]
“In thee,O Lord,do I put my trust:let me never be put to confusion.”(Psalms 71:1) This verse I choose for this blog is one that tells us who we can trust and in whom we can be assured a right path.If we trust him then there is no room […]

Have you ever put an address into your GPS,yet ,you didn’t follow the directions it was telling you to go relying on your own senses just to end up lost? That was me.I was so stubborn; the only way I would stop is if I was thirsty,hungry, fed […]
I have to start by saying that God is good.I’m really starting to enhance my spirituality even though coming to prison caused me to lack in faith.I blamed everyone else even God for my mistakes that caused me to be in prison. Now I’ll never justify my actions […]
First let me share with you a scripture from the bible to start this blog.Psalm 56:9 “When I cry unto Thee,then shall mine enemies turn back: I know,for God is for me,” Here David is stating that when he is crying to God he knows that God will […]
I remembered the recreation coordinator asking me to serve as a coach for our institutional basketball team,I hesitated.How could I be a role model when mistakes littered my past,when I still struggled, stumbled, and slipped into old bad habits?God helped me form relationships with these total strangers here […]
Mend a quarrel. Search out a forgotten friend. Dismiss suspicion and replace it with trust. Write a letter. Share some treasure. Give a soft answer. Encourage youth. Manifest your loyalty in word or deed. Keep a promise. Find the time. Forego a grudge. Forgive an enemy. Listen. Apologize […]
When God created woman,she was formed from the rib of man.I myself interpreted that to mean she is apart of me mentally,spiritually, and physically. I remember at a young age watching my mother get physically abused to the point I still to this day have nightmares. Though I […]
I wake up to the reality that I’m in a cell no bigger then a walk in closet. Relieve myself using the bathroom then proceed to wash my face while brushing my teeth.I have to move within these confined spaces due to the fact there is another man […]
Hello community I’m back with some final words. I ended up spazzing out in the courtroom because they tried to force my 6 year old stepdaughter to testify on the stand with these bullshit charges, so I yelled to the judge and the prosecutor saying fuck it if […]
Hello I’m back to continue my blog to whomever may be reading this,so I left off with stating that I’m in prison due to falling in love with the wrong woman.How? did this happen I guess you wonder? I got released from my second prison bid to come […]
Yes! I say this because I sit here behind these walls because I fell in love with a woman that I trully thought loved me the same as I loved her.No! all that changed when she let another man who I found out later was the main reason […]
