This Newspaper Photo of an Office Is What Keeps One Prison Inmate in Solitary Going

This Newspaper Photo of an Office Is What Keeps One Prison Inmate in Solitary Going:

Adrian is a prisoner in an isolation cell in a New York State prison, due to be released in September of 2015. He spends 23 hours per day locked in his cell. The picture above, clipped from a newspaper and festooned with motivational reminders, hangs on his cell wall "to remind him of his dream to work in an office one day."

That is fucking heartbreaking, I type, in my office.
