Dear Diary,
Exactly 18 months before I was a free man. Surviving and living my life by whatever means necessary. I have never realized that the path that I had chosen for myself to survive is not the best one, till the day I stole a wallet of an old man 18 months ago. Inside that wallet, I saw a medical report in which it was written that the wife of the owner of the wallet is diagnosed with cancer.
After reading that report something inside me moved and I felt sudden shame because of my acts. I decided to return the wallet to the owner and that's how I ended up in custody. If I have learned anything from this supposed imprisonment is that now i understand how wrong my past actions were. From now on I won't repeat any of the things that I did in past. I will change and stop surviving by stealing instead I will survive by earning living like others.
