The Broken Bridge

Life is a balancing game. At times through dilapidated bridge, With shattered rails and planks, We have to daringly pass, To reach our desired destination.

Love your angle. Despite challenges and worries, we would always strive to get to our destination. Even if the bridges get burnt, there's always another way and if there's none. We should create one. Thank you for this great piece. Best wishes.

Dear Valsa, you are so poetically philosophical in just how life can be grand and glorious and, at times, that dilapidated bridge comes to being. Perhaps that is the joy of having all these emotions. - Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel

Such a deep and meaningful take on the picture prompt dear sweet valsa, i love how you’ve depicted life as a balancing game, theres always highs and lows and one must learn how to navigate through them all. “We have to daringly pass, To reach our desired destination.” So true, profound and wise words! Pleasure reading your interpretation of the picture prompt! Best wishes. Sending you light always
