Generally I’m not an in-between kind of gal.

With me it’s either in or out so, you would think things are either black or white.

But no, my problem is that when I’m feeling white about something I understand the black and when I’m black I can see the benefits that could come my way if I was white.

(But let’s not get into that!)

For me this year has seen a lot of something I like to call The Week In-between.

Which refers to a time like vacuum called the present moment: seconds, upon minutes, upon hours, upon days of waiting for a better week to come.

‘The Power of Now’ and all that jazz was no doubt written by a The Week In-between survivor. 

Because quite frankly it’s hard to get razzled up about the present moment when it’s during The Week In-between, as during The Week In-between it’s all about next week.

You know when the week before you had something really exciting happen – you meet someone at a great party then you have The Week In-between-Next-Week when you hook up again and make up for the time that literally came in-between you.

Hence The Week In-between gets a bad wrap, an annoying time before the good week to come…..

But it’s not always the case, take mine for example. 

As I look to this week, the last In-between Week of my life as I know it, I realize that the last few months of The Weeks in-betweens are what have led me to next week!

I just couldn’t see that till I started writing this sentence.

Granted with every new Week In-between I’ve faced, the fear factor has been higher, but the options have got more exciting….

Jobs, friends, apartments, laptops, and now countries.

So, when it comes to The Week In-between the thing to remember is this: As you challenge yourself more The Week In-betweens are harder. The reason? Sometimes it’s hard to see the light when you are surrounded by it – although it’s a bitch when you are sitting in it The Week In-between is the making of magic.

That being said, I’m taking my magic and bolting!

I’ve done my time With the Week In-between.

From next Thursday Tootstar.com is going weekly from New York City.
