Hello world, how is it? I’ve met some nice people through these sites, but after a year they must get bored and they stop writing? Maybe they think I’m crazy, who knows, judge me for yourself! I’ve been incarcerated for 3.5 years and I feel stagnant. I’ve tried college courses and books but they have no life, no spark, just like everything else in here, and I find myself falling into that rut. Help me, I’m falling!

I fear to become like all these men of men who are impervious to reality, refusing to accept the truth, and living in denial. Who in their right mind thinks once they are here that they are the elite gift to the world? I am not in denial! I did commit my crime and I am not proud to have beaten a police officer. He did strike first though! Most men here can’t control themselves, but think they are in control.

I’m looking for someone or something to steer me away from this mental restraint I do not want to stay a statistic. I do not know what or who I am looking for but if it’s you please give me your time, I have plenty. I am looking for sustenance and inspiration, maybe through you I can find truth, honor, and more strength. Maybe through you I can find support and friendship. What I have thought to be friendship has dissipated into a void of nothingness, some my fault some not. I have no friends here nor do I plan to find any here. I’ve been drug free for 3.5 years and plan to stay that way. I do know what “I do not want!”.

If you are gay do not bother. If you like to be beaten by men, don’t bother. If you are screwed up on drugs, don’t bother. If you are under 24 I feel creepy so don’t bother. I do not want money. I do not want meaningless naked pictures! The question is can you help me mentally escape this cold, callous, ignorant, and harshly meaningless world and provide a glimmer of inspirational happiness to intrigue my mind to prepare for something more substantial thus helping me strive for a better outcome for my future. A spark would be nice; whether you are nice or not makes no difference, just someone a lot less ignorant and closer to reality than the perfect little tough people in here! This letter may seem like I I I I, but I have no you!

Stay free!
