When I look into the mirror, I see myself and I see I need to make changes. I saw a new man with different ambition and expectations that needs to be met. My first day here at Hillcrest I wasn’t happy with what I was seeing, but as days went on and Bible study went on, I saw a change needed to be made.
A reason change needs to be made is my age. I’m too old to be getting in trouble, also the effect I made on my parents like the sadness I caused them. I wish I could be seeing myself in the mirror at my house and not in my cell because this is my first time here and the change is extreme. I can’t look at myself in the mirror for too long because the thoughts I will have also over thinking will cause me to go crazy, especially in here.
Also, another change I see is my physical health needing a change. Since my health isn’t the best right now with high cholesterol, etc. finally the responsibility that comes with my life.
