Is it too obvious? God sends us metaphors that Andrea Bocelli could see :
The miners are trapped in a hostile place from which they are powerless to escape. They are going to die. They are spearated from all source of life, except a few little air and food passages that remind them that there IS something better and more alive than where they are.
They need to be rescued.
Then, people that could have easily plugged the holes and said, "too bad" didn't. They went to incredible expense and effort, out of compassion and nothing else, to find a way to save these people, ......one by one.
One by one. Individually they were rescued. That long ride up must have given each one an incredibly special time to reflect on the difference between dependency and freedom, or maybe the way the two are interelated.
Superstars! Indeed, they should feel like superstars - that someone cared enough about them means they are valuable. Was it their own efforts or gifts or good looks that got them out? They could never pretend that it was.
Will they remember?
Unfortunately, they have just arisen to another, bigger mine hole. And their condition is just as desperate, in an eternal sense.
Wait............ do you hear a drilling sound?........................

Maria Segovia, whose 48-year-old brother, Dario, is among those trapped, said that when he is finally out, "I'll tell him I love him, that I'm very proud of you." Then, she said, smiling, "I'll kick his backside" so he never goes into a mine again. [SOURCE]
Chilean Miners due to extrude soon ... They have been a distance twice the height of the Empire State Building down in the crust since before August fifth ... The stranded miners will each be wearing $400 pairs of sunglasses sent specially to them to ease the shock of bright lights experienced on the surface. The Chilean Miners have been receiving coaching to help them when they emerge into instant FAME ... do you feel lucky?
Well, if you do then Give Us a Caption for this Moment in the near future, I have scribbled on my son's notebook paper, so you ought to caption it? Go ahead -- make my day!
