Hello, my name is Son Tran. I am a Vietnamese male condemned to die, residing on Texas Death row. With a hand of friendship I reach out beyond the walls and razor-wired fences, in hope to find someone willing to befriend - and stand by me as I struggle to battle the killing machine that wishes to extinguish the flame which gives me life.
Confined in what I can only describe as a tomb, 23 hours a day, where day and night entwines as one' and time, the void that breeds loneliness is stressful and unbearable. I struggle daily to maintain a sense of sanity, for I refuse these walls to get the best of me. In times like these I know having someone - a friend to write can help make my mere existence more bearable.
Should you be reading these words and feel the slightest urge within to write - to reach back and accept my hands of friendship, thus, allowing us the chance to share our life with another...then, please don't hesitate another moment. I would be glad to hear from you. Life is too beautiful a journey to ride alone and not share it with someone else.
Or e-mail me here please put my name in your letter I share this box with several others.
