The Walk

Working in Suntec tower 4 gives me the opportunity to exercise my limbs everyday from city hall mrt station.

The walk can be as long as 20 minutes depending on one's speed and if one is carrying any other load like laptop. I was a reluctant participant initially, complaining about the distance tiring me out even before the day has begun.

But the unhappiness won't go away just because I dislike the walk. This is a necessity if I wish to report to work everyday.

So I decided to slow down a little and started to enjoy every single moment that I get to experience as I ply through the walkways. The moment of noticing what other people are busying with, the changing window displays, the little patches of landscape that brings warmth to the concrete and more...

The observation may not bring on any emotions or contemplation - as I simply notice and let go. But the experience does give me varying and interesting insights about things and people everyday.

I am now more mindful. Yet I feel calmness. The same walk, different mindset, different impact to one's well being...

Seemingly endless road...................

Thinking is difficult.

But is doing really that easy?

This is but a journey to nowhere - an endless road that is filled with lots of turns and signages but leading nowhere...
