Dear Friends and Community
Dear Friends and Community, My name is Carlos, and it’s time for me to be completely open and honest with myself and everyone else. I recently finished helping the pastor of my church put up a fence around his house. Since I’ve been out of prison, he is one of the very few people who have not only seen me and treated me as a human but have also given me a second chance. Thankfully, he paid me for the work I did on his fence.

I have not been very successful in quieting my mind this evening. I find that as time goes by, I find myself in deeper contemplation, in regards to the purpose of my life. I can say with certainty, that thus far, I have had a life, that with all things considered, has been a well lived one.
