In between

It’s more than the start and stop, beginning and end.

What matters is what’s in the middle.

Consider sleep. The time between falling asleep and waking up is a mix of sleeping lightly, sleeping deeply, moments of wakefulness, and periods of dreaming.

The beginning and end are important factors, but what happens in between is of great consequence.

And so it is with life. When we’re born and when we die is significant, but what happens in between is what matters most.

You’ve still got some “in between” left. What will you do with it?
