Checking Out

by Nick Spalding

Kitchens always seem to be the place where both good and bad news are generally imparted, have you ever noticed that? Must be something to do with being in such close proximity to the teabags.

I’ve stopped worrying so much about what’s going to happen or what has already happened and I’m thinking more and more about what is. Right now. In front of me. And what’s in front of me is life.

Because that’s all I have. That’s all any of us have. Moments. Moments captured between a void.
