The undeterred journey (Magere Brug in Amsterdam)
The Undeterred Journey
Progress doesn't happen in the blink of an eye. It's a journey marked by hurdles, tests, and moments of setback, eventually leading to the ultimate destination.
Though there barely is a denial of the value in the journey itself, the allure of shortcuts is often hard to resist. Yet, whichever path you tread, challenges await, and there are bridges you'll need to cross to reach your desired destination.
Yet, every obstacle you face offers an opportunity to grow, and with perseverance, you can turn setbacks into milestones that will make you eventually reach the finish line.
Magere Brug in Amsterdam
The Magere Brug, or "Skinny Bridge" in English, is one of Amsterdam's most iconic and historic bridges. Spanning the Amstel River, this wooden drawbridge dates back to the 17th century, though its current iteration was built in the early 20th century. It's renowned for its picturesque double-leaf bascule design, illuminated beautifully at night, making it a favored spot for locals and tourists. Today, Magere Brug is a testament to Amsterdam's rich architectural heritage.
