Bloom Where You Are Planted

This blog was created March 11, 2015. The contents of this blog contain correspondence between Chuckwa Don Crabtree and Gina Gillispie.

Although the two have never met, they became friends via mail when Gina, editor of an online news site, first reported Chuckwa's story.

When Gina saw his arrest photo, there was something that tugged at her to believe this person had a story to tell.

She mailed her first letter September 7, 2012 and they have been writing ever since.

After several years, Chuckwa decided he wanted to begin to tell his life story and send a message of hope to those who still have choices to make...his goal is to spend his time doing good things and good work right where he is....

Chuckwa has decided...to bloom where he is planted.

The posts that you will read will be a mix of old letters, stories about his everyday life in the James V. Allred Unit in Iowa Park, Texas and stories from his boyhood growing up along the creek in Palo Pinto County, Texas.

He signs his letters...."The Callisburg Kid"

DREAMS



I have wondered about dreams for years but haven't been able to come to any conclusions.

Are they angels?  Does our spirit live on?  Are they my guardian angels?

I can tell you this if it wasn't for me having the dreams and experiencing it I wouldn't believe it.

That's what changed my outlook on God and the angels and all that stuff.  The Bible teaches that the dead are conscious of nothing at all, but it does say that there are angels.

My grandparents are both passed on and so is Mr. Miller, but the people who were in my dreams were them with the exact same voices.  It sure raises a lot of questions in my mind.

I dreamed last night that I was at the lady's pond where I fished a lot growing up.  She was talking to me in the dream.  I don't remember what she was telling me though.

I sure wish I could have woke up there instead of in this place, but here is where I live.

I'll have to leave the fishing up to the kids for a while.

Matthew 4:11

Then the devil left him, and behold, angels came and were ministering to him.
