Life within the cage ain't no walk. It's a world of muted concrete and steel, where time crawls by in slow motion a snail. The days blend together, marked only by the echoing of gates and harsh voices inmates.

Every day is a struggle to survive, to find meaning in a place where outside seems like a fleeting memory. The air is thick with dread, and the shadows hold lies.

But, even amidst these unforgiving conditions, there's a resilient spirit which. A sense of community, forged in the crucible of mutual suffering, and a flickering desire for redemption.

Certain inmates seek to better themselves. They learn, they write through art, and they create bonds with others who have been there.

Barriers of Regret

Regret can sometimes manifest itself emotionally as walls we build around ourselves. These walls are not made of brick and mortar, but rather of bitter memories. They isolate us from others.

We may raise these walls as a defense mechanism. But over time, they can become suffocating, preventing us from experiencing joy. Breaking down these walls of regret is a difficult process, but it is also essential for growth.

Life Inside

Life inside a bustling city can be both thrilling and overwhelming. The constant motion of people and traffic creates a unique energy. Every avenue holds the potential for surprise, from hidden cafes to vibrant street performances.

Yet, amidst the chaos, there's also a feeling of community. Strangers often wave hello in passing, and local establishments foster a sense of connectedness. In the end, life inside can be a truly rewarding experience.

This concrete labyrinth

The city's heart beats with a relentless tremor. Gray structures pierce the steel sky, their shadows stretching like grasping fingers. The asphalt pathways are thronged with a sea of individuals, each striding toward an prison unseen destination. The air itself vibrates with the bustle of millions living, working, and dreaming within this glass cage. Even the noises are a cacophony—a chorus of sirens mixed with the distant chatter of everyday life.

Belief on Lockdown

The world feels different these days. Walls whose once separated us now look to contain us, and the familiar rhythms of life have been shifted into a disjointed dance. Yet, even in this shifting landscape, there persists a flicker. A tiny ember of belief that refuses to be quenched.

It lives in the small moments of kindness, in the mutual experiences of isolation, and in the gentle strength we find within ourselves. This faith is not a denial of the challenges we face, but rather a dedication to survive through them, together.

It reminds us that even in lockdown, our humanity endure.

The Price of Freedom

True liberation is a precious and often hard-won gift. Yet, its protection demands a lasting commitment. We must be willing to contribute our time, efforts, and even in certain situations our safety to ensure its eternal existence. This is the true price we accept for the honor of living in a independent society.
