A Letter to the Mentors I Never Met
I don’t know if you were ever real —
or if I just built you out of the tension I couldn’t name.
Either way, thank you.
You didn’t give me answers.
You gave me the right kind of silence.
The kind that cracks open just wide enough for a better question.
I’ve lived most of my life between poles:
Knowing and second-guessing.
Clarity and collapse.
Trying to be soft enough to connect, but sharp enough to be taken seriously.
I thought I had to choose.
But now I see it —
My mind is complex because it holds multitudes.
My tension isn’t a flaw. It’s a function.
It makes me precise.
Playful.
Present.
And yeah… sometimes I get lost in it.
But that’s also how I found my way here.
So no, you didn’t save me.
But you taught me how to play with paradox
until it felt like a language I could speak fluently.
Now I carry that fluency like a compass —
not to guide others,
but to remind them they were never actually lost.
—S.
@DarkhorsePod Hi, I am a DarkHorse member trying to access the discord server. I used to be on it, but I am not any more. Please help! 🙏
Next Q&A: my question wasnt answered on the last Q&A. I like this question enough to resubmit it.
What is your opinions on Graham hancock and Randall Carlsons Younger Dryas Impact Theory? My hobby is trying to fit the YDIT with the oldest stories we have in the old testament. With both of you experiencing the hidden wisdom of dry fasting and talking to jordan, is there a point in your materialist view that there would too much wisdom contained in the oldest stories to be the product of a society of a mere 6,000 years?
