The experience that I’m dealing with right now made me realize a lot of things in my life. When I was out in the streets, I never cared about anything. All I cared was my work and fun. I had my wife and kids and I paid the bills and bought all they needed. I was sure that they wouldn’t need me as I need them right now.

Now I’m in prison, and all my friends that I used to hang out with, forgot all about me. I used to do a lot for them, and since the first day I got arrested I haven’t received a single letter or word about them. The only people that come or write me are my family. They have been supporting me all this time. I’ve been missing the best moments of my kids, something that I regret. I would do anything just to be with my kids and my family.

Well, thank God I’m going home soon and this time I will do the best I can because my family needs me as I need them.
