I Am HumanA Poem by Donald ColePeople affect the people that they are around, especially in the system of "justice" ...... I got too many words for here..... something to think about.....The Criminal Justice System is not operated primarily for the benefit of victims, But for the benefit of society as a whole; Thus it is concerned not only with punishing the offender but rehabilitating him. (Wyomng Reporter) 37-42 P&D
*I AM HUMAN*
At any given moment, whatever I chose will become the right choice for me. Not necessarily a good choice, but right in that it will propel me through what I need to go through to teach me what it is that I need to learn. Mind you, I feed off of those around me and those around me are forces that shape the choices I make now and throughout my days. When those around me, limit me, choke me, or try to suppress me or oppress me, and I act accordingly. Whn those around me, stand beside me, instead of above me, and offer me respect as an equal, I am given hope, a belief in myself, a chance to be valued, a hand up, and a hope for a better tomorrow, and that I can be a part of it, enabling me to be a change agent for my own success, not condemning me for being guilty of the same thing that we are all guilty of........ ...............BEING HUMAN----
