Live in a bubble, be stressed, rush, pollute, get fat, pour money down the drain, shout, sit in traffic, get angry, isolate, destroy, experience the artificial, scorn the real, switch off...
or...
Experience the elements, feel alive, breathe, ponder, deliberate, think, be free, connect to your surroundings, be calm, be happy, be slow, peddle, chat to follow travellers, see the detail, see the whole...
Which would you chose?
My way is the latter, so please forgive my indulgences as I record some experiences and thoughts from my (almost daily) 20 mile bicycle commute through the Devon lanes.
Your stark contrast astutely captures the insanely dysfunctional mindset that constitutes 'normality' in modern-day England.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to reading a lot more about the peddling and the pondering.
