Today I enjoy being clean and sober. So much to see, hear, taste, feel and smell. I missed out on plenty being drunk and high. Inside prison I stayed clean but it’s way better now that I’m out. A whole lot to see especially family and friends and so many places to go. Yes, I actually do have places to go now. I soak it up like a sponge.
Getting out of prison was a culture shock, that’s challenging. I’ve been out of circulation since 1982 so you can imagine all the new technology to see and learn. I’m trying to catch up with the rest of the world.
Going into prison was a shock when they put me in a little locked cell. My mind couldn’t handle it. I was catatonic for a month.
Well now on the other end of the spectrum, freedom is a whole other ballgame. Freedom is sweet, don’t me wrong. I’m just on a learning mode at a slower pace. So much to take in. This transitioning program is definitely helping me adjust. I’m grateful! I’m living with women that can relate with what I’m going thru. We support each other.
