He Discovered The Essence Of Humankind
I sit in front of Jordan on a zoom call and feel his surrounding authenticity. There is something about him, the air of a man with a traumatic past. His aura screams he is where he is through many dark nights of the soul, and perhaps there are still some to come.
The next hour and a half disappears as I am mesmerized by his story… There are many threads and webs and weaves, and those are for another day. But this one is his journey to discover the essence of humankind.
I write this story in the first person to take you deep into his world, a voyeur peeping through the keyhole! Staring over his shoulder….these are my words through his eyes.
This is Jordan’s story!
The sounds around me were…. nothing.
The silence was terrifying; it was a silence pregnant with obscenity and stories never-to-be-told.
I sat down, and the processing began. This was to be my home for the next month. My self-fulfilling prophecy came to life on that day…
And in some odd way it was the best month of my life….
I was in a psychiatric institute.
This was the start of a new life for me and the beginning of the end too …
