tor The Mirror as an inmate, and
trust that after reading it you may
all feel towards me as / have al
ways felt towards you. Looking
back over the five years of my stay
here, l have come to learn the truth
OF the saying that the darkest hours
are just before the dawn. Our first
few months here are dark; sorrow
and remorse cause many a bitter
pain, but in time we begin to realize
that even here one can be in way,
happy; happy to know that we were
stopped before we caused the gates
OF freedom to close upon us forever;
happy to know that even here. with
all our guilt proven, there was still
some friendly hand extended to us,
and that some stronger brother has
promised to lead us back again to
the pathway Of right living. Happy
to know that some loving mother
still worships her hayward boy, and
who prays each day to the Father of
us all that We may return to her
again. And when mothers prayers
are answered and we meet her again,
let us also pray to Him for strength
and guidance in the future.
Yes men, we have much to be
happy for even here. AS the sun
light chases the shadows of dark
ness away, so can we by right doing
cause each day to become full of
JOY and sunshine. Take an interest
in your work; believe there still is
enough clay and sand in your make
up to be nodded into man. Strive
with all your might towards that
end, and when the last day arrives
and you are about to depart from
here, you will be proud of the fact
that you have done your best to pre-
pare yourself for better and bright
er life outside. You will be strong
er and you will find no trouble in
the future, if only you do your part
as man should. The thought l
wish to leave with you is this: that
even as the sunlight chases the
shadows of darkness away, you may
also, by keeping your heart full of
love and your mind full of good
thoughts, cause your every worry to
disappear. You can't feel blue with
sun beam locked up in your heart.
