My Life / Inside Out

My Unstructured Upbringing And Cares To The Wind Attitude Led To My Frequent Incarceration From Childhood To Adulthood It’S A Disturbing Story Which Is Primarily Aimed At The Adult Reading Audience Who Enjoy Reading About Reality Situations And Crime. I Have Always Been A Reader And To A Large Extent That Helped Me Become A Self Taught Person. Born On The Banks Of The Colorado River In Arizona And Raised Up In The Marcos De Niza Barrio Projects In South Phoenix I Experienced The Injustices Of The Cotton Fields Maricopa County Juvenile Detention Home And Arizona State Industrial School At Fort Grant Arizona. I Wandered The Desperate Streets Of Los Angeles And The Forlorn Railroad Tracks Alone Like A Lost Person Without A Purpose In Life. I Was Locked Up In The Jails Of Phoenix And Los Angeles Before Winding Up In The California State Penitentiary System. Upon My Release I Struggled To Stay Out Of The Pen And Took The Jobs That Society At Large Would Never Want To Take. Through Numerous Personal Tragedies Incarcerations And Unfortunate Circumstances I Lost Control Of My Life. No One Was Ever Able To Change My Destructive Behavior. The Changes When They Occurred Came From Within Me When I Could No Longer Cope With The Situations I Had Cast My Self Into. Looking Back I Can Now See What I Couldn’T See During Those Hopeless Time Periods. I Was Very Fortunate To Finally Be Able To Leave That Life Behind Me Through Relationships That Believed In Me And Successfully Worked And Built Myself A Civil Service Work Career From Which I Retired. I Now Spend My Days Enjoying Life’S Simple Pleasures After All My Previous Tragic Missteps. My Objective In Life Now Is To Become An Accomplished Writer.
