The Great Beyond
“I don’t know how I feel about myself anymore?” I asked. The long quiet hallways of the in-patient unit were brightly lit and sterile.
“The mental health journey is a hard process,” the counselor mentioned. I picked up my heavy luggage and walked to the door. Nathaniel, an elderly man with a cane methodically lumbered the length of the hall to catch me.
“I wanted to tell you something,” he said. “I think you are an amazing person, and I hope to see you in the great beyond.”
I exhaled deeply and walked through the doorway looking at the sun.
