Living in the In Betweens

Life
is full
if you're lucky
of celebrations
.
momentous occasions
.
they mark our lives
our days
.
they give us
something
to cling to
when Life
gets
in
the
way
when it sucks our energy
and drains our passion
.
but
in between
those moments
in between
the celebrations
IS
Life
.
it is in
the in betweens
where we miss out
.
where Life really happens
.
the real cause
for celebrating
.
the nothings and the everythings
of our everydays
.
hiding
in the in betweens
is
a Monday night
with
wine
and
the good stereo
and a candle
or two
and a rekindling
of
You
Him
Us
Life
.
There.
.
there it is
.
in the in between

  3. Very true...it's something I need to remember more often, because I tend to just drift in and out of my in-betweens.

  6. Oh how I love this. And needed it today. Sorry I've been "missing" lately. Too much life getting in the way but the "in-betweens"... it's where life really is. thank you. xo

  7. This is when real life happens -- all the memories that will crack us up years and years from now are happening in the in between. So hard to remember!

  8. It is hard to catch these in between moments, but when you do they are worth their weight in gold.
