What Your Prison (The Result Of Lies) Looks Like By Gene

 

What Your Prison (the Result of Lies) Looks Like by Gene over at Gene-A Prophet

 

When you have been put in chains by a lie, there is a familiar pattern to the prison:

• You can no longer make decisions based on what you want, you are at the whim of those who insist they make them for you.

• You are told what to eat, when, where and how much. Choice is no longer yours.

• Your housing is all paid for, but it is much less then you hoped for when you dreamed of life for your family

• Your fellow prisoners keep telling you that they have this figured out, that there is a way to game this thing for benefit.

• You would go outside your Cell, but the violence and murder in the area is too much.

• You have to be very careful what you say, even what you say in private is monitored.

• You are not allowed to defend yourself at any level. Your warden is assigned to defend you...but he doesn't do a great job of it.

• You are allowed to go out in the yard on occasions where you can bask in the sun and pretend things are OK...but you know in your heart something is wrong.

• You are promised favors because you act a certain way. You are still expecting that favor. It isn't coming, but you keep hoping.

• Everyone around you tells you this is the new normal, this is the way it is, and you can't change it.

• When you talk to others about the situation they blame everyone and everything else. This warden blames the system. It's all someone else.
