Can you imagine falling in love with a prisoner?

Can you imagine falling in love with a prisoner serving a life sentence for murder?
First time i heard of a woman who was engaged to a lifer I thought she must be out of her mind. Then i contacted someone i'd seen in a documentary about Restorative Justice and forgiveness. You guessed it: A lifer. In the US. And i, being a Dutchie, fell in love with him. For more than a year now, we are manifesting a high risk, interracial love story, a relationship with a purpose.
I invite you: Read my blogs and step into the world of a Dutch mother and the man she fell in love with: an African American writer serving life in Florida. Listen to intimate and raw stories of unconditional love, unavailable arms, narcissism, shame and the ultimate desire to be free. Prepare yourself for the occasional philosophical outing. Be careful though, you may come to realize that a prisoner remains fully human.
