Locked Up Behind the Wall

Arnold Woodrum

 

I never thought of being locked up in jail, so now that I’m locked up my life is upside down. Day in and day out, I think about the mistake I made. If I could have one more chance, I would not make that mistake again. Well, today is my birthday. I’m 47 years old today. I have 12 months left to go and I pray all the time to God. I ask God to please give me one more chance, please. I feel that I’m much too old of a person to be behind the wall. I have six children. My oldest is 25 years old. My next child is 24 years old and I have 4 more children ages 22, 20, 19, 19, and I also have 5 grandchildren.

So on that note I need to be there for my family, especially my mother. She’s getting older now. She sent me a picture of herself on my birthday. My father is deceased so it’s all about God, my family, and me. May God bless my family and me.
