I am an ordinary woman who used to have a happy family and a stable job. However, the trick of fate led me to the point of no return, and now I have spent five years in prison. Whenever I think of my husband and family, my heart is always filled with endless thoughts and pain.
My name is Li Mei and I am 32 years old. I used to have a warm family and a decent job. However, a sudden change of events made me lose everything.

My days in prison were extremely difficult. It's full of complicated relationships and rules, and the slightest mistake can get you into trouble. In the dead of night, I always think of my husband and the good times we spent together. Those warm pictures always make me cry.
Over time, I found a way to relieve my thoughts - writing letters. Whenever I miss my husband, I pick up a pen and write down my thoughts and inner monologues about him. Although these letters could not be sent, the process of writing them made me feel a kind of spiritual sustenance. Every time I finish writing a letter, my mood is much lighter.

In addition to writing letters, I also joined the literary team in prison. Here, I learned to sing, dance, and act. Through theatrical performances, I made a lot of like-minded friends, and we spent many unforgettable moments together. These activities not only made me feel fulfilled and happy, but also allowed me to rediscover the meaning and value of life.
Of course, life in prison is not all smooth sailing. Sometimes I encounter some unfair treatment and bullying. However, I always believe that as long as I stick to my beliefs and hard work, I will one day get out of this haze. I keep reminding myself to be strong and brave in the face of all the challenges in life.

Here, I also learned to be grateful and cherish. I am grateful to those who have helped and supported me during my most difficult times, and I cherish every opportunity to connect with family and friends. I know that I have made a serious mistake, but I hope that through my efforts and changes, I can regain their trust and forgiveness.
In these five years, I have experienced too many hardships and growth. Although there is still a long way to go, I believe that as long as we keep working hard and face life positively, we will one day regain freedom and happiness.
Whenever I think of my husband, I tell myself to be strong and brave to go on. I believe that one day we will meet again and create a better future together.
