The Possibility of Liminality

The word liminality​ is a fancy way of saying that one is "in limbo" (the two are related). It's that weird spot in between something - you've left where you were but haven't quite arrived at where you're going.

While such liminality can be stressful, it's also the precise point of possibility. Many times, we don't get a chance to see what's possible in this great big world until we venture from the friendly confines of our own routine.​

Letting go of the familiar is scary. But possibility only emerges when we're willing to climb up that hillside. Possibility, it seems, isn't visible from our normal or the everyday.​

If you want to get to that place of possibility, the route takes you right through liminality. You can't miss it.​
