I went to prison yesterday . . .

but they wouldn’t let me in.

Usually I would say that is a good thing – I’m sure you would as well. But this time I really wanted to get in. There is a prisoner there in the pre-trial section that I feel a need to speak with.

For several years now I have been ugly toward this person – and, as I said to her in a note, it was really not her I was angry with . . . my anger/hurt, etc. should have been aimed at another person. THAT person and I are talking about that.

I need to ask the prisoner’s forgiveness, you see.

There is Someone I want to introduce her to – Someone who is leading me to talk with her – Someone who has forgiven me/adopted me - and who will adopt her as His child, also.

But . . . I couldn’t get inside the gate yesterday. She has had too many visitors this week and cannot have visitors until Thursday. I have Friday off, so hope to visit her at that time. They would not even pass on that information to her – I asked them to tell her I had tried to visit and was told rather curtly that they do not do such things.

Ever tried to reason with a metal box attached to a gate with a video camera aimed at your face?

Yeah, didn’t work for me, either.

If you can spare a thought at this Christmas time, won’t you send one upwards for AV? He knows who you mean. It’s a lousy time to spend in a pretrial facility.

thanks, everyone.
