Hello my name is Elizabeth Anne Green. After 33 years of being in prison, I have learned to give back instead of hurting others. It is very sad that I had to come to prison to learn that I should not do drugs and not hurt others in order to get money. I have done many things to improve myself. These things include taking victim awareness, thinking for a change, and drug-related groups among others. I tried very hard to mentor other inmates coming to prison so they don't become like me, learning the hard way like I did. Each day, I try to improve my life [inaudible]. Being in a place like this can become very hard, but I fight to change way of thinking, so I will never have to repeat my past mistakes. Now, I just want to give back. I even earned my GED. Now I am a tutor, love learning and going. My name is Elizabeth Green, and I'm a life worthy of progress. Thank you. These commentaries are recorded by Noelle Hanrahan of Prison Radio.
