I wish I could go back.

I wish I could go back.

ANONYMOUS INBOX

Five minutes cost me seven years of my life because I made a permanent decision based on a temporary emotion.

1 Minute:
I felt disrespected.

3 Minutes:
A fight broke out in a nightclub.

1 Minute:
A shooting.

The consequences:

5½ years in prison.

1½ years on parole.

I missed my son’s birth and his first five birthdays.

I missed my daughter’s birthdays from ages 3 through 8.

Over $4,000 in legal costs.

Countless opportunities, memories, and precious time with my family that I can never get back.

One emotional decision that took only five minutes to make ended up taking seven years of my freedom and changed my family’s life forever.

If I could go back, I would walk away.

Please learn from my mistake. Never make permanent decisions based on temporary emotions. The trade-off is almost never worth it.
