Out of reach

Untouched aims often appear overwhelming and out of reach. Yet, when gaining the motivation to tackle a project finally, you often face hurdles that seem unconquerable. Thus, the question quickly arises whether the needed effort is even worth it.

But, if nothing is ventured, one cannot gain anything. As hard as the way might look first, such journeys usually possess a finishing line just waiting to be crossed.

However, there might be moments in which motivation shrinks, self-doubts rise, and it seems impossible to go on. By taking time off, you can create awareness of the path you have already covered. Suddenly, the goal no longer looks overwhelming and out of reach anymore

The staircase has an interesting design, with a color scheme combining old-fashioned charm and modern appeal. The white and light blue paintwork reflects the sunlight beautifully, giving the staircase a bright and inviting atmosphere. It's easy to see why this place has been preserved for so long: it combines style and durability perfectly. The stairs also have a unique tonality that is captivatingly persuasive. Walking up or down them, you can feel their age and strength - it's like walking through history itself. Even though there are other staircases in Amsterdam, none can compare to this one’s timeless beauty and strength. It was a pleasure taking this photo in the summer of 2021; I'm sure it will remain memorable for many years!
