It made me realize how much worse my situation could be and that there was always light at the end of the tunnel his story is amazing and he’s really a inspiration I highly recommend checking out his book it’s a real eye opener.

    Funny thing how put running the cops can make you very fast. I remember my friends being behind me when someone said I'm calling the police. We turned around and ran and I was last in the pack and knowing the the last in line is the one caught i ran past all 7 of them and the other fast kid was the farthest from me when I started. I got back to base so quickly that I was waiting 20 mins for the rest of them to catch up. After 10 mins I thought we had lost some to capture. I still have no record. Lol
