Paragraph on myself:

I committed these horrible crimes in 1999 at the age of 18_• The day I turned 18 and a month after, I went on a robbing spree, I robbed people of not only their money but I robbed them of their sense of safety and their sense of mental and emotional strength. As a young minded individual i was ensnared into a life style of crime, drugs, and violence, as well as, gangs. I was to afraid to turn back, to afraid to ask for help. Because of my actions, I was arrested and sentenced to d 70 year prison term. I will be 35 in January 2016. I was a kid easily influenced, ignorant, and under developed, as well as, just plain dumb, I cannot say I AM SORRY, enough and I will spend the rest of my life making amends for my behavior. As a man today who understands the seriousness behind his action and one who has found God in his life, I am no longer impressionable to the street life. Today, I have the strength to turn back and seek help, and I will do everything in my power to continue doing better.
