I went to jail last week. I feel so much better now. It was exactly the reality check I needed. I had to appreciate the simple things more.
Jail did the same for me. One day was enough for me to realize a lot. Each day your in there your thoughts go deeper and deeper since you have all the time you need to think. I've been a different person since and i'm thankful for it. Makes me look at a lot of situations differently and its mostly towards a form of protection.
what does it say about me if i say i didn't think very deeply when i was in jail? i was more concerned about not saying the wrong thing to the wrong people...
I was in for being a dumbass and reacting the wrong way to something that wasn't a big deal. (Assault to a peace officer). I'm not proud of it. I've been in jail plenty of times but I needed it now more than ever. I've had way too many second chances.
