Transitioning from incarceration to freedom is not easy.
It takes a made up mind as well as a village of people who are investing in seeing you succeed.
During Jail ministry I've seen the revolving door inmates go through for drug use.
It was this way for me.
I've had ladies tell me, Mrs.
Julia when I get out, I'm going to leave the alcohol/dope alone, and be better.
I'm going to get my kids back.
I'm going to work and leave that person alone.
I'm going to move on with my life and do and be.
