Through the Fog

General visualization for relaxation and imagination

Visualization based on the September 2017 Choose from 3 winning photo

You are standing in a small building at the top of a large mountain. The windows of the building wrap all the way around, giving you a 360 degree view of your surroundings. You were hoping to see the sunrise over the majestic mountain range several kilometres to the east, but there is a heavy fog that only allows you to see a few feet away from the building you are in.

Sunrise comes and goes. Slightly disappointed, you leave the building and begin the long walk down the mountain. The path you are on twists and turns down the mountainside.

You have been walking with your head down since the fog doesn’t allow you to see much anyway, but you suddenly decide to look up. A small patch of fog clears several meters to your right, and through the trees you see a statue of a mythical creature that resembles a lion. You stop in surprise and admire the statue, whose peeling paint does nothing to detract from its beauty. Past the statue you can just make out a small, old temple.

The fog moves in again, completely obscuring the statue and the temple it guards. You would love to have a closer look, but you don’t want to risk losing the path in this fog, so you continue on your way, this time with your head up.

A few minutes later, the fog clears again, this time to your left. The edge of the mountain is just a few meters away. Now you can see the outskirts of an old town clinging to the side of the mountain below you. You have just enough time to note the beautiful craftsmanship of the closest wooden homes before they are swallowed by the fog once more.

You continue on your walk, weaving your way down the mountain. You are eager to see what else the fog will show you.
