‘Why You Should Have To Go To Jail’ — first reason
Follow-up story from Sarah D.
I have to express myself about this. I want to share with you something that hit me deep. I am amazed. I am amazed by the mystery, the story, the experience itself and the nonsense of this person.
The story is WHY YOU SHOULD HAVE TO GO TO JAIL, and it depicts a stay in a prison. A girl in a boys’ prison.
Like a wave that hits the shore and goes back untouched. That wave starts an impossible mission, to be arrested soon after by the wholeness of the ocean. This girl, her name Sarah, invites us to go to jail. Perhaps she invites us to love, perhaps to feel, perhaps to be loved. Most certainly she invites us into jail to be free. Are we free in our western and globalized way of living? We are no wave, we do not hit the shore, and for sure we do not respond to the ocean saying: “Here we are!”
Sarah, as she seems to me, has a ocean to say and I hope the world doesn’t hit her back too hard. She has to be voiced, since she has a voice.
…
Too often I feel myself imprisioned, but I am not caged. However Sarah made me want to be a prisioner for the first time. I’ve always felt an urgent need to be free. Now, for the first time, I doubt.
What do you mean Sarah? The fact that you loved and that you were loved inside a prison don’t mean that we — all the others you spoke to — will feel or experience the same. You are not advising us. You are condemning us. And that is pure.
You!, who are free and live as you were imprisioned, listen to me, because I have sinned and now I am free again. My penalty of love was obeyed; or should I say, my penalty of love was impressively succeeded. (?)
First reason you should want to go to jail
The first reason you must go to jail is to find a different way to love and to be loved. I do not have a single clue if they can be accomplished simultaneously. However, the first reason you should want to go to jail is the sensation of the new and the nonsense. For what crimes you must have to pay your penalty? Should you pay them behind bars? Or do you just make someone else you don’t care about go behind bars? People can be mean sometimes. What is your wickedness level?
I suppose this first reason is not enough to force you to try some time in jail.
Meanwhile, I will try to find more reasons to convince you, to convict you, to condemn you.

UPDATE — I never wrote the second reason and now there is no point in doing so. However, this piece represents a special moment in my writing experience, so I must keep it.
