What’s the worst tasting slice of humble pie you’ve ever had to eat?

Broke up with my gf. Decided to go back to the country where i bailed on court and an arrest warrant for public intoxication. I turned myself in so I could get a job.

When the judge asked me why I fled my answer was fear. He asked the prosecutor how long I had served so far. He said, 109 days on PI? Must be a record.

He told me a plea deal of time served. It was over a Skype call, no less and i was confused but i waived my right to an attorney and pled guilty.

I was released the next day and felt like I broke the walls of my life prison apart by following honesty and what I thought was the right next step.

I spent the following year in homelessness and bedbug infestation at the behest of an evil evangelical Baptist church who use the homeless as slaves, and a dying corporation that wants to blame its workers rather than the awful society we have built for ourselves centered around money instead of people.

I am now back with the gf I broke up with only because I made some of the correct choices I needed to in order to grow as a person.

Who knows what awaits, since life is a cycle of choices and growth and you are never permanently one thing. It's a series of choices.
