The path & a lamp
Relating to the futureThe journey is an old trouper of a metaphor for life, meant to capture that feeling of putting one foot in front of the other, then dealing with and ideally learning from what one encounters on the path. The metaphor is readily worked: incomplete navigational aids, harsh terrain, fellow travelers met going in either direction, delights or horrors around a bend – the platform is flexible, a desirable trait in a metaphor.Christine O'Connor4 min read
