I love music. I learned to play the guitar at 11 and I wrote my first song four years later. My dream -----to become a country singer. After years of hard work, a record company was showing interest in me. One day during a trip to mountains, a friend gave me a bit of meth, a kind of drugs . I smoked it. And that was all that I thought about for the next year and a half. I couldn't live without it. When the police came to me, I looked like death. The first seven days in prison , I just slept. When I woke up on the eighth day, I had never known such shame and guilt . I walked down the hall to the pay phone. My mama is the best person on the earth, and I knew this was going to break her heart. When I heard her voice on the phone, I told her where I was. She just said, "Son, no matter what you did, I love you forever . Her words gave me the confidence to face my trouble . And I also realized  this was my chance to start a new life. When people hear my words, I hope they will not make the same mistake  as I have, but I know that you can overcome  almost anything, especially smoking drug. That's why I share my story here. Why was the writer put into prison?
Because he offered others meth. Because he took drugs. Because he refused the company. Because he didn't pay for his phone.
