Coming to Terms

"There's the before and the after"

"I don't quite understand what you mean by that, would you care to explain?"

"There's the moment before you get told when life seems okay when nothing is the limit, every day is endless. Then in seconds, it's the after, and there's no going back no matter how much you wish and pray and hope to whatever god you believe in. There's no going back. Your life is now stuck in the after."
