Getting Closer To My Release From Taft Prison Camp
I've had a bit of a change in my schedule at Taft Federal Prison Camp. Whereas I used to exercise for nearly four hours a day, seven days a week, I've realized I no longer have time for such heavy training. My prison term is coming to an end and in four short months I will walk outside these boundaries a free man. I must use every day that remains to prepare.
Exercise will always be an integral component of my life. Yet, as Aristotle suggested, there is gold in moderation. A healthy adjustment requires perspective. Since I do not intend to earn a living as a professional athlete, I must prepare myself for realistic opportunities. That requires more reading, more writing and more time for introspection. In fact, I'm going to lie down and begin reflecting right now.
