The In-Between That Defines Us

January 17, 2025

Life is bookended by two certainties: a beginning that feels uncertain and an ending that often carries sorrow. But the magic lies in everything that happens in between. The joys, the struggles, the mundane moments—they’re what make it all worth living.

How do we honor this in-between? By being present. Presence isn’t about perfection or constant happiness. It’s about being fully immersed in the now—whether it’s a conversation, a challenge, or a fleeting sunset. It’s in these moments that life truly unfolds.

Instead of obsessing over how we started or fearing how it will end, we have the power to shape our in-between. We can choose connection, growth, and gratitude. After all, it’s the journey—not the start or finish—that tells our story.

Make it count. Be here, now.
