Jim

An MK childhood in the Philippines collides with a rough return to Texas. Dorm chaos, depression, and purity rules set the fuse. Years later, working as a bouncer, Jim realizes the anger that kept him safe is costing him peace. He turns toward honesty, community, and a kinder ethic. For MKs who grew up between worlds, his path names the tug between armor and openness—and the slow work of healing.
