(Without the cold and desolation of winter, there could not be the warmth and beauty of Spring.)  If you understand what the above statement implies then you, like me, understand that life's struggles are the cold and desolation and that those struggles contribute to future success and happiness.

     Hello, it is not my intention to intrude upon anyone else's intimacy.  However, upon these words please allow me a few moments of your precious time, to introduce my diction to your mental make up. 

     My name is Juan Grajeda.  I am a native of Mexico, but I have lived in Dallas, Texas for the past 18 years.  I am currently incarcerated in TDCJ, serving a 6 year term, on which I have 2 years completed.  I'm 24 years old, born January 6, 1985.  I'm 5'11", weigh 180 lbs., with brown eyes.  Some of my most valued hobbies are reading, writing, exercising and playing soccer.  I also enjoy watching a good movie every once in awhile.  My reason for posting this ad;  I'm seeking friendships, one's who will allow me (even at the mercy of pen and paper) to establish relationships predicated upon the principals of truth and honesty.  A person with an understanding heart, to realize that by disadvantage of my physical impediment I can do so little in the context of appealing to their physical needs and desires.  Please note that race, religion, age nor looks are important in my quest for friendship.  I will respond in kind to all.

      In closing, it will be your venture to embrace the dimensions of my life with your mind, heart and spirit.

                 Until then, I shall remain,

                  Sincerely yours,

                  Juan Grajeda
