Our lives are a journey through a changing landscape. These landscapes become associated with the emotions we experience as we pass through them. Some of these associations are so common that they become a language which can be universally understood.
A ship departs at dawn, a car travels on a road at night, a solitary figure contemplates distant horizons at dusk; these are all images which have a resonance beyond the surface narrative, suggesting various emotions such as loss, hope or communion. - Simon Harling
