Between Knowing: On Consciousness, Wonder, and the Spaces Between

Between the story we’ve outgrown and the story we’ve yet to inhabit lies a territory both terrifying and fertile. Like the moment between breaths, or the darkest part of night before dawn, this interval contains both ending and beginning, death and gestation. Our culture, with its addiction to certainty and conclusion, provides no map for these spaces. We are taught how to arrive but not how to depart, how to achieve but not how to dissolve, how to build identity but not how to survive its undoing.
