I am relatively a young man who has decided that I no longer wish to throw my life away. And although I am currently imprisoned, I feel blessed that I have time to re-examine my life and take this opportunity to think of who I was and work on who it is I need to be.

I am reaching out, in an attempt to meet and establish positive and healthy relationships in hopes to make a successful transition back into society.  In the meantime and in between time, I study the word of God in order that I may become mature in faith and in good nature and not pattern my life after the desires that has controlled me up until this point.

Furthermore, my hopes are that, I can somehow, in someway be a positive influence in your life as well.  I think that we all wish to be understood, in one way or the other, and I look forward to sharing your qualities and mine.  True beauty involves inner qualities that do not decay or fade and I strongly emphasize the importance of a persons character, rather than ones outward appearance. At any rate, I would like to thank you in advance for your time and I hope God blesses you despite the instability we feel, living in a world of uncertainty.  Remember, to the world you may be just one person, but to one person you may be the world!
