Discover extra content in the blog post – JAIL!
In 2010, I was arrested. I felt like the problem in my family, their strong beliefs made me feel like a failure.
Have you ever disappointed someone? How did it make you feel? These are the questions I had as I went through the jail’s intake process.
I felt really lonely and sad, even unable to cry. Life before this was busy, but now I was stuck and powerless.
The next weeks were about writing letters and waiting for mail, getting a letter felt special.
Eliza, who seemed like someone I wouldn’t connect with, surprised me. She promised to write me, and her letters became my support. She was the first of many unexpected friends who changed how I saw the world.
In this episode I’ll talk about unexpected friendships, and how everything can change. This is “Jail”.
