MIDDLES

We talk about beginnings and endings in life a lot…

births and deaths…starts and finishes…sunrises and sunsets

For every beginning there is an ending…after every ending…a beginning…

looming in the shadows like silhouettes.

 

And although beginnings and endings are important 

wherever we go and in whatever we choose to do

we spend most of our life in middles…

living between the two.

 

The next time you think about a beginning…or an ending

take a moment and close your eyes…

to remember all that happened in between…

in the middle…where happiness lies…

 

Yes, beginnings are certainly important…

as are the times we bid adieu…

But it is in the middles of our life…

where our present meets our past…

 

where most of our dreams come true.
