Instilling Change: Adam LaRue

Years ago, Adam was convicted of a felony. When asked about the time before that, he told me that he tries not to think about the person he was then. He was a reckless young man, focused entirely on what he wanted, and able to justify any decision if it made him happy. Today, that reckless young man is a lot more thoughtful. Every week in group therapy, he states his crime, and every week he adds, “I’m here to grow as a person, to be a better person to help better the world for everyone else.”
