Great job nephew! I am so proud of you♥️
Very proud of you for rehabilitating yourself because the point of jail is supposed to be for rehabilitating people, not just locking them up! 💪🙏👍
Great Ted Talk Carlos! Congratulations on all your accomplishments. Always remember you are a victor and not a victim!
[Slow clap] I know you were deep man.Thank you for telling your story. Thank you for being a role model. I have had the pleasure of selling your artwork and it is awe inspiring.
Spoken truth from the heart. You can and will become what you believe. Faith, Hope and perseverance breeds change. Humble beginnings.
I just met this gentlemen two weeks ago... He is a real inspiration!!!
This was very insightful and offers hope to those soon to be released or that have been released for sometime, but lack the resources, support and know-how to successfully emerge back into society. Well done brother.
Very well spoken my friend. Proud of you. Sometimes we don’t realize that we go through things in life, whether good or bad in the end to be a blessing to others. You are doing what that end plan was, which was to show others how to overcome their obstacles. We all have a purpose in life. I pray for your continual success in everything you do. Congratulations on your beautiful family!
Thank you sir. Great message and advice. God bless you and family.
