it's all about perspective, my friend. make friends with your inner dialogue. thoughts can either be your ruin or your salvation. it's all in how you 'do your time', whether in prison or not.

thank you for this. i must have read the tao te ching a million times but never knew about her translation. i will definitely check it out. she is hugely influential to me too. i was deeply saddened when i heard about her death.

i wrote to ursula in my 5th year or so and she did write back. it was just a short note from her saying thank you and wishing me well. that note was lost in a shakedown with a lot of other stuff. stephen king did not write me back hahaha

I wouldn't take it personally that King didn't write you back, he was busy at the time doing more cocaine than some entire counries

Hey OP, are you doing therapy or did therapy when you were inside?

You seem to have a pretty level head now, but I'm wondering this because it will only help you in the long run.

yes i am in therapy. aside from helping with the transition we are addressing my fairly bad body dysmorphic disorder that i';ve had my entire life.

there is no true rehabilitation inside except for the guards slamming the cell doors shut and yelling 'rehabilitate yourselves' and 'read your bible'

we did have some self-help groups. i got my ged while inside though.

within my own area, yes with approval. to another state, in my case, yes but not for a long time. it's ultimately up to the po and the state's laws. i can travel to another state as long as i get approval.

what are the demographics here

i imagine it is mostly north american men but does the site have a lot of people from europe and other places

my prison was mostly white, i'd say maybe 55%, then black, then asian-american, then latino. i don't know why we had more asian-americans than latinos.

OP you seem better adjusted than most of this site's deranged freaks and would probably be better off leaving the internet forever, but oh well.

Anyway, if you're getting a gaming computer and like tallships there are a few naval-oriented pirate games you might want to check out, namely Assassin's Creed Black Flag, and maybe Sea of Thieves.

Oh yeah, you said that your friend Lamar had been in the clink for 30 years when you got there. Not to be gauche, but I'm guessing he's out and/or dead now, right? What'd he do?

hmm yes i think some naval games would be cool, thanks

yes, lamar died while inside and it wrecked me and some other people. he was in for a double homicide.

lamar is one of the things i won't talk about much. at least right now

i've heard every slur imaginable and then some. one of the cardinal rules inside is 'watch what you say and who you say it to'. slurs could and would get you beat down or worse i dont think i'll have a problem keeping them out of my posting. i think the thing that kept me safe inside is that i'm one of those people that has never met a stranger, i can get along with anyone. im not at all threatening in my speech or manner. that was one of the things that hurt my mom so much when i went inside, she said i was always so jovial and kind and gregarious as a kid
