Og okay .... how about another ..... we are "encased" in "water" as a fetus, the water breaks, viola we are born .... I'd consider this also a journey ... with the end result of coming into consciousness and the beginning of the learning process (out side of what a fetus learns while growing in vitro) ...
just didn't see it included in your metaphors so I thought I'd throw it out there for discussion ..
