Bridge

Let every man praise the bridge that carries him over.
~ English Proverb

I love bridges.  I think it is because they are shortcuts, and who doesn't love a shortcut?  And they usually are over something interesting - water, a canyon, something like that.  And they help you get from here to there.

A bridge is a great symbol for connecting things.  And that saying about "don't burn your bridges" that is a good saying.  Because if you burn a bridge, you destroy your connection.  I think it's okay, though, to tell some people that a bridge is closed if you need some distance from them.  You can always open it again later.
