Metaphor for life experience.
Santa Fe Balloons的点评
点评：My husband and I celebrate 35 years of marriage this year. We took this ride at dawn on Easter morning for a sunrise spiritual experience rising into the clouds as did our Lord that first Easter morning. For me, I felt the trip to be a double entendre, or metaphorical experience, for life and faith. My husband volunteered to help fill the balloon with the fan. It was 31 degrees on the ground, pre-dawn. It was arduous for him, like the 10 years it took us to get to marriage. We committed. We climbed in helping each other to do so. After lift off we sailed high and far with ease, like most of our life has gone. After awhile, we lost altitude, scraped the side of the concrete ditch leaving black marks (scars) from our basket. The bottom of our basket touched the ground of the watery ditch, and in the same downturn I felt I could almost reach out and touch the power lines. Metaphorically this compares to the various trials, tribulations, and near misses that come up along the way in life/marriage (or all relationships actually). With faith, time, calm, patience and experience of others around us (our pilot/God) we safely rose out of the ditch, only to land in a barb wired fenced area- trapping us. We couldn’t deflate/disembark safely without ripping the balloon in the barbed wire. Having faith and continued commitment in all to work out, Alfred (who has 24 years experience) and our two ground crew members, all worked together to give us enough lift to get us out of the barbed wire “danger zone” to safety, which was in clear visible view of where the bus waited for us just a few yards away. While we were never in any real danger on the balloon ride, like in life, things happen along the ride (that leave scars/black marks), bumps, touching the bottom, feeling trapped. Calling on our pilot, (our faith in God), and working with each other, we can rise above it all and continue the journey of life together experiencing all life has to offer.
翻译：我和丈夫今年庆祝结婚35周年。复活节清晨，我们乘着这趟旅程，体验日出升入云霄的精神，就像主在第一个复活节清晨升入云霄一样。对我来说，这次旅程是人生和信仰的双重体验，或者说是隐喻性的体验。丈夫自告奋勇帮忙用风扇给气球充气。黎明前，地面气温31华氏度（约3.1摄氏度）。这对他来说很艰难，就像我们结婚十年一样。我们承诺了，互相帮助，爬进气球。升空后，我们轻松地飞向高空和远方，就像我们生命中的大部分时间一样。过了一会儿，我们失去了高度，擦到了水泥沟的边沿，篮子留下了黑色的痕迹（疤痕）。篮子的底部碰到了水沟的地面，在同样的下沉中，我感觉我几乎可以伸手触摸到电线。比喻一下，这就像人生/婚姻（或者实际上所有关系）中遇到的各种考验、磨难和险些发生的一样。凭借着信念、时间、冷静、耐心以及周围人（我们的飞行员/上帝）的经验，我们安全地升出了沟渠，却落在了一个带刺铁丝网的围栏区域——我们被困住了。如果不把铁丝网撕破，我们就无法安全放气/下车。阿尔弗雷德（拥有24年经验）和我们的两名地勤人员满怀信心，并坚持不懈地努力，给了我们足够的升力，让我们得以离开铁丝网“危险区”，安全抵达目的地。从那里可以清楚地看到几码外等候我们的巴士。虽然我们在乘坐热气球时从未遇到任何真正的危险，但就像在生活中一样，在乘坐过程中也会遇到一些事情（留下疤痕/污点），颠簸，触底，感觉被困住了。呼唤我们的领航员（对上帝的信仰），并相互努力，我们可以超越一切，继续共同的人生旅程，体验生活所提供的一切。
