Bars of Time

What do you do when you can't shake off the weight of all the history surrounding you? Do you give in or tether yourself stronger to the present? Listen to know what Blue Dino did when she found herself walking along a similar path of polarity...   Transcription: As I strolled on the cobblestones made in the past, taking in the sea breeze, arm lovingly entangled in my baby cousin's, the place drew me into itself. The sense of freedom was strong; even as open, clear skies, and pillars of stones, and metal bars enveloped us all, I felt as though I could take off and fly. And be happy forever. But that's the thing with bars of time; as much as you try to forget, you can't help but get trapped within the history that paints the place. And so even as I giggled with my aunt, uncle, and sisters, and discovered the architecture of what was now called a 'museum', the truth rang loud in the echo of our every step: This museum, until very recently, used to be a jail. But how can one grapple with the notion of feeling free in a place that only recently served the very opposite purpose? I didn't have an answer. So I shrugged off this reality to face another day. Just like all of us do when we walk the many paths of polarity. Tell me, which one did you walk today?   Our Website: https://likeridingafish.wixsite.com/my-site Follow us on Instagram: @likeridingafish   Music Credits: https://freemusicarchive.org "Woke up this Morning (TP 53)" by Till Paradiso  License: CC BY (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/legalcode)    Background sound from Pixabay
