capoeira espaco

Ahhahaa, I have great news.. You see, for most of the year I was in a big case, in trouble for some things I did/used to be. I ran from the cops, went to jail. Had dozens of court dates, and was generally a wreck about the whole thing. The potential consequences were serious. Like years in prison. So the stress on my life for the past 8 months was pretty heavy. I wasn't able to work, was homeless for some of that time. Things were hard. But now, I'm almost sentenced, only one more week. I'm not going back to jail, I'm not going to prison.

Pixador has his freedom. I'm gonna be on probation for years, with very real consequences if I violate it. But things are different for me now.. I have capoeira in my life, I have a path that I can walk, that makes every moment of my life amazing. Capoeira gives me a way to grow, to be better. And legit; I'm going straight and changing my life, on the positive tip. Plus, I got my group a space to train during the week!! (For weeks we've only had 1 night in a gym) I'm so happy, life's never looked so good, so full of promise.

A serious weight is nearly off my shoulders, capoeira is gonna help me stay striaght, and be good. Then when my prob. is up, I can move out of this town and train with a real group and a Mestre again.. Who knows, I might come to your town and train with you!

My heart is so full of joy tonight, I'm happy. Really just truly happy, right now in this moment. It feels good. And tommorrow, I get to have a class in a gym, I get to have a roda. I'm gonna train and play for hours, and a smile will never leave my face. Salve!! ; capoeira conservado meu vida, capoeira, meu amor...

That's awesome! It's great that you get another chance, and that you've got capoeira to see you though . . . Stay clean, healthy, and happy!
