PART 1
WILFRED
T here was a place where I would go whenever I felt lost or desperate. I didn’t find this place myself—my sister did, and she showed me how to get there. She called it the island.
And indeed, it looked like an island to her. A wide beach of black sand and a dark ocean before my sister’s pleased face. The air was fresh and salty there, so her head was light and her worries disappeared. The Northern Lights appeared above my sister’s head like a crown each time she turned to the north.
That was exactly how my sister described the island. Had I ever been to the island? Yes. Had I ever seen any of this for myself? No. And to be completely honest, I often wondered how it was even possible.
The answer to this riddle was that this place, which I knew as the island,
sensed what you needed and gave it to you in a way you could not possibly achieve by yourself. The island could shape the missing puzzle and complete you. Inside and out.
I always went to the island alone, but I never felt lonely there. There were no thoughts and therefore no doubts. I would think and I would do. I would do whatever I thought. I experienced an amazing feeling of being welcomed by this place. I had unlimited power in this place, and I was unlimited in myself. I was carrying the heart of the island and it felt right. No, I was the heart of the island. I could truly say there was no other place like it. The island was the one.
My sister and I could go there at the same time, but we would never meet. The island would not let that happen. It also would not let you stay there for a moment longer than you need.
Wake up!
I told myself as I came back to our shared reality. I was complete, full of life and balanced. I always left the island feeling that way.
I remember the day the island let me become a part of it. I was walking through a crowd of people on the main square in Beijing. It was spring—the city was always spectacular at that time of the year. Sadly, I was so distracted by my thoughts that I hardly noticed the changing of the seasons.
I had just reached the edge of sanity. I stopped in the middle of Tiananmen Square and gazed down at my hands. They did not look familiar to me.
It was all inside. Imagine a planet dying. It moans before it finally splits apart, crushed by some invisible power, and there is no sound to any it. None. I was deaf to its moans, but all the pain, like a huge concrete wall, was pushing against my chest until it reached somewhere deep under my ribs.
A few people looked at me with concern as they passed, but they didn’t stop. It was close to 9 o’clock in the morning and they were in a hurry to get to work on time.
A woman in a white coat stood watching me. I could have sworn she was looking right through my face and deep down into the darkness.
She waited until I noticed her interest, and after I did, she walked directly toward me. Her face did not betray any particular emotion. She looked calm—the same way people look when they have nothing to lose or nothing to be afraid of. They are free and confident because they are not attached to anything, but also apathetic because
