Crystal Barker / Lonna Blodgett / Margaret D. Stetz
The zephyr of an urban city attracts people. For those who stay on, adapting to the hubbub, is inevitable. The cycle of experiences can be broadly shown in three phases. The Brahma Stage, is the learning phase which is full of zest and bliss, spiked with creativity. The Vishnu Stage, is the peak, where the feeling of knowing everything there is to learn, plateaus. The Maheshwara Stage, is when realities dawn upon the self as bitter they can be, in turn making one ’move on’ and evolve. The vibrancy of experiences offered in a multi-faceted city, repeats this cycle for individuals. It rewards those who continue to stay, with undying grit and a street smart approach of a survivor.
