I chose perseverance as the theme or ideal that peeks my interest. The profile that shows this theme the most is Moreese Bickham. In all the years that this man spent in prison he never gave up the notion of getting out of prison. In the 42 years that Bickham was incarcerated he was actually a very good prisoner, he never gave any of the guards any trouble and tried to help as many of the other inmates as he could. To pass the time and to keep his sanity he kept a garden. The perseverance that is man showed is an inspiration.
