In my personal reading I'm still struggling with Job. His friends' comments sound a lot like what I hear from guys here, both inmates and guards. I wouldn't say it's wrong thinking, but it is very misguided. This isn't a place where much positive thinking is done. Many guys are stuck in the same thought processes that led them here and the way the system is set up, there is nothing done to help them move out of those processes. Case management and counseling would go a long way toward getting all of us on the right track. And people wonder why recidivism rates are so high.Wednesday, September 24, 2008
My bro Job...again
Due to the missed class Monday the professor decided to do a make-up class on Friday. Unfortunately the make-up class will be held at noon instead of the normal 5:30 PM time. Noon is like 3:00 AM to me because of my work schedule. I hope I'll be able to concentrate but I apologized to the professor in advance if I fell asleep.

I wish you could write to my husband. He is usually very positive especially being in his situation. He knows that he is in their for reason and he is on God's timetable. He does have his down days, but for now he has a good attitude. I hope you can find someone with a good attitude to fellowship with.
