I remember the iodic smell and the gooey texture of the spit that accompanies me at bedtime. My father says good night to me by spitting on me. I am only eight years old... My innocence eludes me as torment ensues. My tortured body is filled with rage. I am only a yucky child. As a teenager, I embark on a dark journey. The world is my oyster, I escape the law, and violence is my main form of elusion. I am no exception to the world that delinquency will show me. I collect both good grades and criminal convictions. My first love? The world of academia. It keeps me afloat through it all. It brings me the stability and humanity that I never felt with my abusive family. It is my beacon of light when I sail in murky waters... Outlawed student, my double life will stop in 2014 because of my involvement in a criminal case. Armed robbery in an organized gang, incarceration, overloaded police record... My future looks bleak. In the hell that is prison, unexpected support keeps me above water. In 2015, deprived of my liberty, I never forget my childhood dream of becoming a teacher. Not in five years, or ten years. Right now!
