The Purpose of this Blog


Hello. I’ve been thinking these last few days about this page... what makes me write it. When I decided to make this Blog was when my sister printed out and sent me various Blogs. When I read them, I liked them and thought I’d like to make one as well, but I didn’t know about what, being that there’s not much to tell from inside this prison. But one day as I was reading a book about inspirational stories, which gave me much encouragement, I decided that my Blog would be about positive and inspirational messages. And that’s how this page was born and I named it: Through the Walls, because it is from inside these walls that I’ll keep sending encouraging messages for all those who visit this Blog, hoping that they help you in one way or another.
