tunnels
leaving italy november 2020 i am fascinated with tunnels
there are many in italy throughout the european continent and going through one becomes a commonplace event when traveling anywhere
i think they're interesting even strikingly beautiful at times
they remind me of spy novels and they make the best photos
i don't always love being inside a tunnel though especially when it's miles long
oh, it's not horrible, not impossible, to be in there and the darkness offers a unique perspective but it can be slightly uncomfortable
emerging out the other side back into the bright sunshine always seems to elicit a silent sigh of relief
a tunnel is such a metaphor for life
leaving your past, heading towards your future a symbol of the paths you might take and the challenges you might encounter along the way
moving through darkness pushing through obstacles beginnings and endings with light and hope, reassurance, waiting just beyond
evolving over the course of your journey your very own metamorphosis story
