Looking at this photograph taken on our trip back from Cape Town and considering the impasse between the terrorists in Paris and the police, I felt that this illustrates any situation where there seems to be no way forward - the road is blocked by mountains, real or virtual! Mountains of misunderstanding, ignorance and intolerance, built up over centuries.
But just as a path exists through these mountains - a poort carved by a river determined to find a shorter path to the sea, so a path must exist through all seemingly impenetrable situations. One just has to keep looking.
