The turning off to Merthyr Mawr converges to a delightful minor road which, like an old river, meanders and flows past sleepy fields and meadows. Slowing down, the road tapers to a narrow stone, hump-back bridge. This is locally known as the 'Dipping Bridge’. Built in the 15th century with holes in the parapets where farmers once pushed reluctant sheep into the River Ogmore for a seasonal dip. At the edge of the bridge once stood an Inn where the landlord would rob and murder travellers en route to St. David's Shrine. I too am a pilgrim, on my own pilgrimage, following my own quest. Crossing the bridge, I find myself suspended, not so much hinged between the banks of the river but more intangibly balanced, sandwiched between enfolding past and present events. Feeling my throat tighten, I give a sigh, knowing instinctively that once I cross the bridge, things will never be the same. In dreams, a bridge often represents the transition from one state to another. Like rebirth; it seems to symbolise the end of one cycle and then the beginning of another; a longing for or desire for change. Perhaps such dreams are a recounting of crossing points at pivotal moments in our lives? Travelling, like the transient nature of our lives consists of such magical illusions, precious moments melted into memory.
