Rant...

Right now I am dealing with bureaucracy and having an incarcerated loved one. No not in terms of the prison system, but in terms of myself and the agencies of the outside free world. Apparently there is not just discrimination against the incarcerated, but their spouses, children, families, etc...Yes we all know this, but this infuriates me that two are punished for one's mistakes, and that the character of those of us out here is also judged by those mistakes. Laws are put into place, "policies" enacted so that we too may suffer although we have our freedom. My husband is not a bad man. I am not a bad woman. Someone please locate and place on display the "perfect" people, void of mistakes or bad choices and worthy of so many more things than myself or my husband because they have nothing to do with the prison system and have never fallen from grace.
