Essay: "Childhood"by Vondric Barlow Isolation
I've read that isolation builds character. I'm alone in this concrete box 23 hours a day; with myself, by myself. So I'll assume being confined to Ad Seg is the ultimate test. Never before have I experienced such an intimate companionship than I've established here, in isolation, in the middle of the night. Deep within myself there is a teacher that I never knew existed. Questions are asked that none can answer but me. The test is difficult because again I only have myself. I look within, listen, I learn. So it's here, in isolation, as I build my character that I enjoy this rigorous yet intimate companionship in the middle of the night. Vondric Barlow |
