gateway

Barrier, hurdle, obstruction: No matter how ambiguous and flimsy the route to the other side may technically appear, matters lie on perception and its competence to deal with the imagined or otherwise... Perception, a wand waving trick that transforms an obstruction into a threshold? ...can your perception be trusted?



the great allure of the other side anyways... The other side is not so much greener as much as it is unknown....

...passing on to the dark side of the vestibule, a crossing both physical and temporal allows us to reinvent ourselves? After all, context is everything and perhaps you aren't really so fucked up after all, you were just a beautiful picture that was just in the wrong frame... or on the wrong side of the frame...





Is there longing to be on the Right side of the gateway? At the liminal moment, the crossing, is there doubt that you even know which side is the Right side? In order for the far side of the portal be the side you want to be on you have to believe that it is.




But after the passage your work isn't done. On the far side of the threshold further movement is still necessary or stagnation will set in...
