B
At 18 years old I was playing with a handgun and I accidentally shot my friend. I
lost my friend and in my view my life was over. At that time I was working for the
FBI as a clerk. I was never involved in any sort of criminal behavior but I wasn’t
motivated about my life and I was a slacker ( ). Consequently, I was sentenced
(宣判) to 8–20 years. I ended up serving 10. But in prison something clicked in
terms of being an active participant in my own life and taking ownership of the
process. I was always talented academically but I didn’t live up to my potential. I
began to read everything I could get my hands on. I went to every academic program.
I attended them many times in the years that followed. When college was offered in
prison through Saint Francis College of Loretto, I was one of the first students to
attend. I ended up graduating with an Associate Degree with honors. Through
education, I learned what I wanted my life to be. It’s funny how things work.
But when I was released from prison, I went further. I applied to NYU and was
accepted. I graduated from NYU with BS with top honors. I didn’t stop there though.
I went on and earned my MSW with distinction from NYU as well. I’m now a
practicing social worker in NYC and every day I give back to society in positive
ways. Many of my friends would no doubt be shocked to learn of my imprisonment
and I often wonder would they understand. In many ways much of my life is a secret
and it’s a burden that I have to bear. But it’s mine to bear and I take full
responsibility. I use it to help others realize their dreams and goals and honor my
friend’s memory.
I know there’re many others like me who made mistakes in their lives that set
them way off course from their expectations and hopes for themselves. You can make
the life you dream of. It’s never too late to make a new start and reclaim your life.
Someone once told me that no matter what happens morning will come and you’ll see
the sunshine. I’m bathing in the sunlight.
Never give up.
