In Between

Info

Life is something that we all can't define. Because honestly, life itself is not even a word. But an entity, beyond now and tomorrow. It is certainly unpredictable. It makes us all fall, tremble, and bounce-back. It also shake us, shape us, defeat us for some times, yet in the end, it makes us feel.

The things, feelings, and thoughts between life, are the things that make it even more astonishing and perplexing. It is the in between that makes life worth living for.

Dreams, Goals, and the Future. One's life is defined by these things for most. Yet I know for a certain fact that the journey while building those dreams, reaching those goals, and lighting-up the future, is somewhat something that we should always be keen enough to consider. To look up to, and to appreciate the most. Because in life, "It is never about the destination, but about the JOURNEY". It is about the things in between.

Tracking down from where I am right now, I can still feel the exact feeling that I've felt the first time that the universe recited the poem that for once, I planned on writing. I was in awe by that moment, and the amazement continuously lingers in my mind. It echoes like a broken yet magical record in my mind. It sounds like an old vinyl that composes every rhythm of my heartbeat. 

The things that are found in between, are the real reasons why we should never stop trying. These are the reasons why we should never end the track and no longer walk, this endless road of so-called "life". These in between, make life worth every tear, pain, failure, sigh, and breath.

Life like Love, is an undefined entity found beyond now and tomorrow. We can always look back to the places we've gone through, yet we can never go back. So, make sure that whenever you look back, you will see the traces of your own foot-steps, the sweats, the blood, time, efforts, and smiles you place in each courageous leap of faith. Because at the end of the day, 

Life is about the things you find in between.
