Not to mention the other kidnappings. This was the most shocking to me of all — that there were so many kidnappings. I thought kidnappings were rare, or at least rarer than this. I started writing this note to you about 29 hours after the article went online. I have more messages to answer than I will ever be able to, particularly while I’m on a [book tour](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRoc4rMP0TIaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cudGFmZnlha25lci5jb20vZXZlbnRzP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTUyJmVtYz1lZGl0X21hXzIwMjQwNzEyJmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTEyODU2MCZubD10aGUtbmV3LXlvcmstdGltZXMtbWFnYXppbmUmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTE3MTk2MyZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKZo7MBZFmQuh5bVIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAD). I finished a few days later, with close to a thousand breathtaking comments on the story. Mostly, people are sharing with me their traumatic experiences, some exactly like mine, some somewhat like Jack’s, all united by the understanding that we are a club, a society of those who have been through it, who are changed forever by something. It turns out, it doesn’t even matter what. Just that we found each other. The weekend before the article went live, someone I met told me that she thought the word “trauma” was overused these days, a vernacular with real meaning that shouldn’t be conveyed lightly. I considered that. Maybe it’s true. But I do wish I could bump into that person again, show her my inbox and the article’s comments section and ask what she makes of it. What I make of it is this: What we survive is incredible. Human beings are incredible.
