Word Of The Day

Liminality

Def = (from the Latin word līmen, meaning "a threshold") is a psychological, neurological, or metaphysical subjective, conscious state of being on the "threshold" of or between two different existential planes.

The moment when something of importance happens to you, for the first or only time, may not be recognized at the time as a right of passage or ritual event. Only much later will you see its crucial moment in the scheme of things.

There is a word for this situation: “Liminality”

“Liminality” describes the transitional phase of personal change, when we are neither in an old state of being nor a new, not really aware of the implications of the event.

All stages of life include liminality.
Life consist of moments crossing thresholds.
As we grow older we tend to see the big picture.
Only the passage of time will reveal how these moments fit into the overall plan of our lives.
