It’s my lifestyle and my decisions. We had a talk about a year ago. The last time I was at the ranch I called my sister and I was talking to her about all my plans that I had.
When I was out I was telling her how good I wanted to do and how I was going to make a change and all this but the moment I got out I stayed out all night, did some stupid and didn’t tell her about it until later on. I had my mind focused on something other than trying to better myself. But I ended up failing aftercare.
I went on the run. Then I sent her the text that I got. She was disappointed but she tried her best not to show it. I knew exactly why she felt that way because I’ve made an empty promise. I started messing up even more. She told me to be safe because she knew I wasn’t going to turn myself in before I got caught up. I was gonna break my brothers out when they were going to court.
Everything happens for a reason. The last talk I had with my sister was something I should’ve taken in. I wish she would understand me.
