Thank you guys for your replies!

I think all of you have touched on different aspects of the dream that are giving me a much better understanding of what it means to me/my situation.

That particular bridge is in the area that I used to live. The other side of the bridge hold the towns where I grew up and where most of my family still lives. I may be looking to leave all the stress of my life and long to go back to a time/place where life was much simpler. Fracas, I particularly like your insight of my "flight" back and forth to look at the bridge from different angles. I like that it suggests that my "flight" means I'm looking for different ways to solve the problem at hand. I don't necessarily want to change all of my life, I'm happily married for almost 15 years and have a lot of thing that are good. His job and my job make things very busy and stressful and I think that's what I want to change. The fact that the bridge is very difficult to cross, I think, means that getting to a calmer life is simply going to be something that won't be easy but I'm up for the challenge.

Thanks again for all of your replies. You have helped give me a better insight as to what this dream means to me and my situation.
