Prison Is A Crash Course In The Darker Side Of Life. Few Survive It Without Becoming A Different Person: More Cynical, Jaded, Fearful, Angry. Its Hard To Trust Again, Hard To Believe, Easy To Hate A System That Destroyed Your Life Behind The Pompous Pretense Of Saving You From Yourself, For Your Own Good.

Fill Your Life With People Who Applaud Your Positive Thoughts, Feelings, And Actions; Who Encourage You Toward More And Better; Who Know How To Praise The Good And Beautiful.

The Part Of Us That Feels Anger And Depression Is The Same Part That Feels Peace And Love. If You Refuse To Feel The Anger And The Pain Of A Loss, You Will Not Be Able To Feel Anything Else Until That Area Heals. In Other Words, Stay Out Of Your Own Way. Let Yourself Feel Bad If You Want To Feel Bad. Feel Joy, Too. Healing Is Taking Place. Give Yourself The Gift Of Healing.

The Bible, Taken As A Whole, Can Be Used To Praise Or Condemn Practically Any Human Activity, Thought, Belief, Or Practice.
