We need to find the "End of the tunnel" is a phrase often used when anyone is in a bizarre situation and in dire need to get out of the tangle and solve the mysteries or problems. Tunnels are referred to the difficult situations in life and end of the tunnel or light at end of the tunnel refers to finding solution.

Finding end of the tunnel in not an easy task as tunnels are extremely dark (loneliness), oxygen depleted (competition) and due lack of direction (misguidance). When one is in the middle of the tunnel darkness, and depleted oxygen levels makes it extremely difficult to find the right direction and survive(Read also: Real life challenges).

This article will give you a little possible clue to crawl through the tunnel and reach end of the tunnel.

Are you ready to put up a fight: Every Tunnels has an entrance and an exit, so do every problem has a solution. Natural tunnels formed by flow of water has multiple exits depending on the flow of gravity. Time has solution for every problem all we need to do is hang on and travel with the wave.

Are you quitter:  Entrance of a tunnel is by itself an exit, for quitters. It's easy to return and comeback to the point of start and keep running away from problems rather than facing them. It’s easy to quit and retract via the entrance. Retracting doesn't lead the way to treasure.

Tunnels and pirates of Caribbean: Pirates ransack the merchant ships and sail away with all the riches. The pirate’s ship are loaded with tons of gold, diamonds and precious stones and they need to hide the loots to get ready for the next raid. They look for secret caves in far islands to hide the wealthy loot. They made the caves as underground treasure chest for their loots and dug tunnels leading to the other side of the cave. They dug tunnels all around, which confuses the intruders and makes it easy for pirates to escape from the kings men. They drew fake maps of the hideout tunnels to misguide. Entry and  exit point are secret and known only to pirates group. Many a times life does the same for everyone of us.

 To misguide and to terrify the intruders, Pirates throw skeleton and bones creating an illusion of death trap in the tunnel to keep away intruders. It's all gimmicks. One just need to have a strong heart and keep moving. Wise men harvest the bounty.

 

Pushing through inch by inch carefully in the tunnel will keep us kicking. All we need is to find a dim streak of light and navigate in the direction of light leading the way out of the tunnel. Instincts, systematic thinking and  experience, will guide us to the end of the tunnel.

 

Don't give up even if you are fighting a losing battle. Keep fighting until the end. SWAT team may be around the corner and help may arrive any time. Giving up while in difficult situation prevents us from finding the opportunities and reaching the green pastures. All we need to do is to have belief in our abilities.

Tunnel becomes a funnel at times and there are too many to pass through the funnel. Wait for the turn and don't get yourself killed in the race to exit the tunnel. A little patience and control of anxiety will see us emerging our of the tunnel safe, sound and healthy.

Wishing you all prosperous, happy, stress free and enjoyable life ahead.
