“When a train goes through a tunnel and it gets dark, you don’t throw away the ticket and jump off. You sit still and trust the engineer.”

Seriously?!?!?! Has nothing to do with trust! You bought the ticket and you want to get your money’s worth. That’s just as crazy as saying; “You’re on a jet at 35K feet and it becomes dark, you don’t throw away the ticket and jump off. You sit still and trust the pilot.” If you open the jet door to disembark the jet you’ll cause explosive decompression and kill everyone aboard. In addition, you’ll likely be jumped by the other passengers and the flight crew and detained then later charged with terrorist actions and be sent to federal prison where you’ll make ALL kinds of new friends and your update will be more along the lines of; “Friendship is special, especially when you have lots of time together”.
Just sayin….
Actually, the quote is about traveling thru the dark times in life and having faith that the situation is temporary.
