Into the Wilderness

Abandon all hope when serving a life sentence in prison. Hope under such conditions can be a very dangerous thing. Acceptance is what should be embraced in such a situation. Acceptance can make the worst situation all the more baring. I accept that my life is all down hill from here if I allow the ties that I have to keep me here, so once my ties have been severed, I'll disappear into the wilderness where I'll spend my remaining years.
