streets
of new york: so I am walking down the street super fast, drinking coffee
at the same time, also super fast, when I get elbowed by this person
really hard. so my immediate Pavlovian response to him is "o i'm so
sorry" (being the clumsy walker that i am and being aware of that). but
then I realize this time it's not my fault, so I say to him "actually
you should be sorry." he looks at me like i am a raving total lunatic
and walks away just the way he was.
my epiphany however is this: both of us embodied traits, albeit different, of a typical new yorker :D
yeah new yorkers are rude but
on the other hand generally pretty awesome. so am not complaining ;)
just making observations of roads with all its makings, the human drama
being one-- similar yet different in different cities even if perhaps the
same people were to inhabit them
