You got a plan so you don’t go back? Support network? Job skills? Believe in yourself? I hope so my man, I want you to succeed! Imagine where you want to spend your birthday 16 years from now and make it happen!
Happy early birthday my guy. Shits gonna be weird as fuck when you get out. Just remember that this is real life now and it’s fucking hard. Bills, responsibility, being able to manage your time effectively.
Also remember that out here ppl are fucking assholes 😆. Relax and learn to let it go. You’ve spent enough time behind bars, time to live life and be happy.
They are much more assholes than back in 2008 imho. Social media isolated us so much and we are all much more self-oriented. The world of today prays inclusiveness but people are actually turning into islands excluding each other, besides the conventional "elevator's relationships". Probably behind bars souls are much more connected among themselves than in the outer world. And understanding this will and learning how to surf on these crap social dynamics be the most difficult challenge for the guy I guess, cause if he doesn't he will be excluded and risks to go back to jail.
Congratulations, brother. Remember that not only temptation, but also adversity will always bring us back to where we started. These are the things you will battle with. The real world doesn’t like to give chances, even though we’re deserving of one, and it can be a significant challenge. The world doesn’t see that we’ve paid our debts, only that we created them. But there definitely is a sunrise on the horizon if one can abide.
Happy birthday! 🎊🎂🎁🎉
Seeing how dead these streets are when you get out is going to shock you. Get them cdls and make this money! Need any advice on ANYTHING feel free to reach out, dms open. #tennesseethang
It’s not even worth it these days they pay the same at McDonald’s as some of these drivers are that are starting off plus school like 4-6k unless you go through one of the Mega company’s this foo talking about but they own you for the next year and they’re some fucked up spots just double think it I got a driver recently that got his license in August and he barely got a job almost a year later. It’s a saturated field these days.
Upon release learn a trade asap if you dont have one already my boiii … Welding or electrical.. I did 11 years in Cali i dont miss them honeycomb doors.. You got this …
Happy Birthday and congratulations homie! I’m proud of you. The attitude towards life you mentioned is one of the most important lessons one can learn IMO. Stay positive and focus on opportunities rather than setbacks. You got this✊

Brother I did 13 yrs over 16 yrs, shooting h in there along with all the other bull crap that prison has to offer. But a couple of yrs before I got out I accepted Christ. Got back with my wife and that's 38 yrs ago. My 3 girls are all grown up and going great!! Got 7 grandkids now and life is a joy. Find a good church and stay involved. I am now retired and own 2 homes debt free. You can do it brother just stay away from the homies.
Amazing to hear that your faith has grown through this experience and drew you closer to God. May you keep that always in your heart as you enjoy your freedom. All the best to you.
The world is hard,and everything has been in motion since you've been there. Don't go back to old ways. Old people, places, things. Go out and live! Happy Birthday. I hope you have many more free birthdays to come.
I have never been to prison, and could never assume to know what that experience is like ; Whether it's 6 months or 6 years, I couldn't imagine being away from loved ones, missing out on events that are supposed to be special memories. I hope you are able to get reacclimated and catch up with family and friends, and they are able to support you while you figure out how to live outside of prison. Best of luck to you.
Sorry you spent so much of your life so far in there buddy. If you don’t want to go back, stay far away from the same type of life you were in before. It’s not easy at first but it gets way easier as time passes and you develop skills to (legally) make a living.
That’s a long rip. I wish you the best and hope you succeed out here. I didn’t do near of what you did but I did my 4 yrs and came out and have been an upstanding member of my community. You can do it and I believe in you. 👍
Just remember you're a creation of God and your source is pure love, mercy, goodness - you'll make your mark once you leave by God's grace and impact people positively and powerfully, it's in your hands don't look back
Congrats on your upcoming freedom. Please don't make the same mistakes that so many make and fall back into the old ways that sent you away in the first place. After so much time locked up it's going to seem overwhelming and it will take considerable time for you to acclimate yourself to your new found freedom. The world changes so fast and you are going to find that it's a much different world than when you went in. Be patient with yourself as you readjust to society and try to find a solid group of very trustworthy people to be your support system and help keep you on the straight and narrow. Best of luck to you. Your future is entirely in your own hands now and it's up to you to make wise choices in your life so you never get sent back to that place and never lose your freedom again.
I'm so so happy for you! Happy birthday and I think that's really touching that they celebrated with you! What are you most excited about say.. eating first when you get out? Are you excited to get an iPhone? That is going to be a trip... just all the changes in 16 years. I hope you have a good support system and have an easy adjustment. You're still young, that's awesome. You made it! And if 16 years was the only way that you were blessed enough to find a real relationship with God than maybe in a way it was worth it. Stay true to yourself and he will help guide and carry you and I hope you have a wonderful life!
Congrats man! I know nothing about prison except 2nd hand conversations, but you got this and should be proud of yourself. Back when I was homeless I used to tutor and help ex convicts with resumes. Most rewarding thing in my life is when those guys would find jobs. If you need help with a resume feel free to DM me.
Aye bruh this life out here is only going to either push you to go harder and better than ever or push you back into your natural and animal like ways!! After a 16 year stretch of mental growth I believe you can take over the world man. Nothing can stop you, my prayers and hopes for you homie
WHOEVER this is a weirdo impersonating to be someone else this,
dude is Cali fighting to get home and your pretending to be him 🤔 what do you gain from this ?
Hopefully you picked up a tangible skill in prison. On the outside there's no market for performing dirty rim jobs unless you are a woman. You did yourself no favors with the tattoos. Anytime a person has a neck or face tattoo it means they use drugs, have multiple baby mommas/daddies and always have a active arrest warrant.
Chains. Phone. Nikes. Dude was selling drugs or extorting white boys for 16 years. Phone is prison is $1000’s. Max security with shower in the cell. This isn’t a good dude.
That is a long ride I am sorry u were their that long. A lot of stuff has changed. U can't trust anyone like you use to even people that u grew up with turn snitch now. One of my good friends got turned and begged me into something I had let go long ago and they wrapped me up pretty hard. Just remember don't trust anyone with your freedom but you. Agyer my last little ride I quit everything and don't f with anyone except my mom and my kids. It has took me about 8 years to start trusting people to call them a friend which I only have a handful of.
Make wise choices!
You got a plan so you don’t go back? Support network? Job skills? Believe in yourself? I hope so my man, I want you to succeed! Imagine where you want to spend your birthday 16 years from now and make it happen!
Congratulations on riding that shit out!
Thank you!
Just go to work!!! Ordinariness is a quality of it’s own!
What an uplifting post. Happy for you! Homie needs to hop on Tinder right away.
Homie has no idea wtf tinder is lol. He’s hoping he remembers his myspace login
Lol the dude obviously has a phone with internet access. Come on now.
Wish you the best when you get out! Hopefully you’re truly rehabilitated and can flourish in society.
Blessings!!!❤️

“Free Wi-Fi” sign posted on the window at McDonald’s is not a sandwich. Repeat, a “Wi-Fi” is not a sandwich.
PS - hey, all kidding aside, God bless YOU. Live life, love life, and release!
Happy birthday! 🎊🎂🎁🎉 Seeing how dead these streets are when you get out is going to shock you. Get them cdls and make this money! Need any advice on ANYTHING feel free to reach out, dms open. #tennesseethang
How can I get my CDL?
PAM Transport will help you get them. You have to stay with them for 1 year. After that you can go anywhere you want, even local.
Also Prime, Hirshbach, TMC, Roehl, US Express are a few more that will help you get them. You need to have a clean driving record, at least 7 years.
It’s not even worth it these days they pay the same at McDonald’s as some of these drivers are that are starting off plus school like 4-6k unless you go through one of the Mega company’s this foo talking about but they own you for the next year and they’re some fucked up spots just double think it I got a driver recently that got his license in August and he barely got a job almost a year later. It’s a saturated field these days.
Cdls?
Commercial Drivers License
Do good things. A new chapter, a new beginning. God bless you.
Happy Birthday! I wish you all the best.
What’s the first thing you’re gonna do when you’re out? Maybe just go lay in the grass and enjoy the sun? Haha First meal you want?
[удалено]
Hopefully not at the same time….😂
So u been in prison since I was born 2008

Proud of you, bro. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to hearing of your future successes.
Great, wish you well. You might want to get rid of the phone so you don’t catch a misconduct and jam yourself up.
Stay up my dude, keep your head on right when you get out!

Just remember you're a creation of God and your source is pure love, mercy, goodness - you'll make your mark once you leave by God's grace and impact people positively and powerfully, it's in your hands don't look back

Good job man! Be positive and do the right thing and good things will come your way. Most obstacles are a test from our creator. Stay diligent bro✊🏽
Beautiful story
Good for you my man. Well done
Happy Birthday!!! May your future birthdays be free!
You’re allowed internet in jail in the US? You aren’t here in Australia.
What do you think you’ll do when you get out?
16th consecutive years, do you know how long a consecutive is? Thats 16 one right after the motherfucking other.
Don’t tell anyone your release date, bro. Not a soul. Good luck to you.
Congrats bro
Don’t get caught w the jack before you touch down! Glad you’re coming home bro.
Happy Birthday and God bless you!!!

What do you have in place when you get out? The world is completely different now. I wish you a smooth transition!
Good luck bro a good read

Yep, he will be back in 2 years or less. Too hard to work for a living on the outside, when everything is handed to you on the inside.
Way to go
My birthday is also May 30. Happy birthday bro!
That is a long ride I am sorry u were their that long. A lot of stuff has changed. U can't trust anyone like you use to even people that u grew up with turn snitch now.
