Could you survive the next 12 to 15 years in a stereotypical prison, separated from the general population?

@PiecingBabyFaceTogether So, it's no difference to you? 🤨
@MarkPaul Well if I have to choose prison life over life with disability I'll happily go to prison I'll read books and write and draw all day and study anything and mind my own business and take care of my health. It isn't bad at all 😊

@PiecingBabyFaceTogether So, it's a matter of perspective? 🤴
@MarkPaul I guess. My life feels like a prison sentence anyway

@PiecingBabyFaceTogether But, if it's a matter of perspective...
@MarkPaul I don't understand what you mean by that tbh

@PiecingBabyFaceTogether Let me break it down for you...

1. You [u]feel[/u] like you are in a prison already.
2. So, being moved to a [u]physical[/u] prison is of no consequence to you.
3. Either way, you believe there is a perspective that comes from either type of prison you are in. For example, if you are given the opportunity to have your food presented to you, offered reading material of interest, have you basic needs met for you that's better than not having those things.
4. But, what if you could have those things and not be locked up in a physical prison cell?
5. If perspective is a factor, as you claim, why not opt for a non-physical prison environment?
@MarkPaul You put a lot of thought into this. I'm impressed. I don't know what to say, my life lacks satisfaction I'm not content nor happy with various things, unfortunately things that I have no contact over. I try though but sometimes it's just hard and depression gets the best of me.

@PiecingBabyFaceTogether Here is what I "hear" from you. You are being controlled by your environment. We can be primed by the environment. If we don't control our environment, the environment will take control of us. It's a matter of emotional "productivity." And productive emotion is created by motion so you can transform.

Are you willing to put yourself in motion so you can transform yourself to be emotionally productive?
@MarkPaul Honestly no I'm not 😁

@PiecingBabyFaceTogether Well, at least you are holding yourself accountable for your right to make your own decision. And, that's something! Congrats. I love that you are no victim.
