Essay: "Second Chance"by Troy Harms
This is my second time down, but really I feel like it should have never happened. But I knew I was coming back this time. I seen it in a dream one night. It was kind of like a warning to get me ready. How do you get ready for something you never wanted to do again? You can't. But let me tell you this...I am here on a violation of probation. After I did all my probation I got brought back to Texas where I never lived a day in my life till prison or jail. Don't know a soul from the state of Texas. Do I want a second chance? Yes, I want a second chance at pure freedom not being held by parole or probation. But second chances at life are not the only thing I want a second chance at. I want a second chance at my family life. Why? Because I need my family help in life out there to help me with taking care of my child and someday to help me at having my tattoo shop, because my family knows how to pay taxes and their bills. They can help me more if I could prove myself has changed to them. There also comes a time when one wants to make himself right with friends and people that have helped him. But the things that he done he must think them over, and one day I will make every thing right to the people who have tried to help me and all so I want a second chance at making my girl happy again and start being a father to my child. To end this about second chance I know in my heart I deserve another chance.
