for anyone in between who they were
and who they're becoming.
most people spend their lives waiting to finally feel alive.
but life was happening the whole time.
you're not losing the plot.
you're finally awake to your own life.
after the promotion.
after things settle.
after we feel "ready."
but 'finally' keeps moving.
there's always another milestone.
another version of "almost."
intermission is for the people who are tired of missing their own lives.
the in-between
isn't where life pauses.
it's where it happens.
intermission is for people who have spent most of their lives trying to arrive somewhere.
and are starting to realize they missed themselves along the way.
essays about identity, ambition,
and what happens when achievement
stops feeling like living.
thoughtful notes for people
trying to come back to themselves.
you don't have to earn your way
into this moment.
what would it look like
to not postpone your life
while it's unfolding?
