Catching a train…

We have decided, we’re going…

Our destination unknown but the first step clear,

Alone but in the company of strangers,

Apprehensive but calmed by the familiarity of process and order.

When I travel by train I often wonder at what stories my fellow passengers would tell of their lives, loves and their journey today. 

We are brought together in that carriage by the act of catching a train, hence sharing a moment. A familiar and safe, mostly predictable partner on that day, that time… those rails. That route to those places.

Railways are wonderful metaphors.

I find them incredibly soothing.

Until next time, more soon…
