“Who doesn’t get excited when seeing an engine roaring down the track
and hearing the whistle blow, announcing it’s presence?
If only the engine could talk and tell us where it’s been.
Oh, the stories it would tell.”

“The sharing of joy, whether physical, emotional, psychic, or intellectual, forms a bridge between the sharers which can be the basis for understanding much of what is not shared between them, and lessens the threat of their difference.”

I always think bridges make such a good teaching tool. We can talk about building bridges that are needed; not burning bridges in relationships, burning bridges to make sure we don’t go back onto a bad path, taking a bridge to bypass a difficulty, destroying bridges to keep the enemy at bay, using a bridge to escape and so on.
I like bridge pictures and love train pictures.
Thanks Mark!
I like all of the ways you talk about bridges. There are some I haven’t thought about.
