Pic100: A Portal between worlds

avatar

It was a tough decision for Georgia to make, standing between two worlds, one with which she was familiar with and the other which only had promises of all she had dreamed of. She was 16 and naive, but desperately wanted to know what the world outside looked like. The only description she had of the outside world was the painting her mum did, a place filled with cruelty and the other world filled with blossom flowers, gardening and happy people.

"This is a world we all hope to go to someday" her mother said to her one fateful day as she stared persistently at the frame. Georgia's curiosity heightened , wanting to know the cruel world, because only then would she differentiate what was bad from good. Keeping her locked indoor was only a torment to her.

It was a lonely world and a lonely place. Only if she could get a portal that led to these worlds, she wished. On several occasions, she visualized herself standing on a portal that led to this world, one with which light shone from and the other dimmed. These were the pictures with which her mum had illustrated the two worlds. She only wish, that someday she'll be able to see the world just as her mum.

What I see from the image

A young girl standing in-between two worlds, she looks lonely. One of the worlds has a light shining through it and the other dimmed. I assume it to be the state of the young girl, probably inquisitive trying to judge between the two worlds.

At that age, curiosity is heightened in an attempt to learn all about life and the adult world that speak of. I remember when I was a teen, I didn't want my parents telling me how things were. I wanted to see for myself and come to my own conclusions. Sometimes, it's best to just listen to advice instead of experiencing it with a naive attitude and understanding.

Thanks for sharing this story. Take care.

That's true, but we often don't want to listen. We realize listening is more profitable at certain age when we've grown older.

That is true. When young, we think we know all there is. Listening to any type of advice seems unnecessary. It's only when we age into the adult world we realized how little we actually know if it and the perils that lie in wait.

Thanks so much for your engagement. I appreciate it.

That's true, we always want to explore until we realize not everything is worth exploring

She wouldn't like it in this World and I bet you she's going to run right back, into the safety of her Mama's World.😀

The old question of whether to seize the opportunity to know good and evil for one's self, rather than to trust the one who knows ... good, deep story.

Since her mother painted both worlds she must have visited them. Does Mom has the portal as well?
Being locked in is not how we should live, but even with a free choice many do so.

Lol, I thought if she has the portal there.

That true, some of us don't enjoy this freedom that we are entitled to

I hope her mom will start to understand, and take her out into the world.

Curiosity and wanting to experiment is the hallmark of adolescence so Georgia should not venture out on her own but should wait to be guided.

That's true, but most times the voices of guidance is suppressed unto experience comes in
