    What is that feeling when you are in between…
    In between the future and the past…
    In between success and failure...
    In between the person you love and the person who loves you…
    In between the fine lines of moral and lack of…

    Do you fight you way through and move forward; or do nothing because you can do nothing? How do you measure those extremes when they are equal right now and will still be down the road? You see yourself going forward, but to which direction at the end? No one knows. Or maybe you do, but you are just in denial. Or maybe this is how life always is like.

    So, what are you in between of? And how do you get unstuck, or can you?

    These are good questions that don't always constitute tough answers. Not to me, at least. When you're in between success and failure, can you really consider yourself to have almost succeeded, or just failed? There's only one bullseye on a target. So while it's possible to almost hitting it several times, in reality when you miss, you failed. So there really isn't much of in between there. One cannot pave a good road to the future without remembering, studying and learning from the past. However, if one were to unable to get over the past, there's no hope for the future. Morally speaking, for you to even be considering the fine line between moral values and the lack of already proves that you have morals. Execution of your control over your instinct to act without morals, however, is another story. To be with a person that loves you may not make you happy when the love isn't mutal, but to love a person that will never love you back is simply miserable.
     
    As for me, I'd rather believe that I am on the road to success as opposed to being in between, as I never know which point of the "in between" I am at. I can only do my best and hope lady luck gives my hard work a look. Having faith in myself and believing in myself, living life as it should be and fighting to make the world as it can be, are what constitute the value of who I am and proof of me living for a reason.

  • thanks for you comment.. and i'm glad these questions has inspired you as it has inspirted me. you are absolutely right, that aside from deciding if you are in either extremes, it's harder to decide at which point of in between you are at. Being optimistic might be the only thing that will get us through those moments.

  • i think that's one of the keys to happiness....having faith in yourself...
