Season 2 – Episode #35 – A Bridge, A Stranger and Dua Lipa
I had a dream… A dream about terrifying heights, about a stranger who became a companion in an uncertain walk over the bridge, and of finally letting go and embracing the unknown, all supported by a very popular soundtrack by Dua Lipa- Hallucinate.
As surreal as this sounds, this is a choice that we all face- cross that bridge and face uncertainty, face the chaos, learn to dance with it and grow or remain on the safe side, become that creature of habit, being a slave to fear, refuse to adapt despite knowing that things might never return to what they used to be.

Quotes:
“ On this side of the bridge where I am right now, it’s comfortable, it’s what I know is safe, I know I can be successful in it and that’s exactly the reason why I need to cross that bridge because it’s too safe.”
“ It’s about being so deliriously in love with someone it just takes you on this massive, amazing, all-encompassing trip… imagine yourself as that someone, that you are so deliriously in love with… in love with all your perfectly imperfect Kintsugi qualities”
“ The obstacles aren’t in your way, the obstacles are the way. The resistance is not in your way, the resistance is the way.”
“ All it takes is that first step”.
