Space is blue and birds fly in it
Next time you're walking around the city, watch how many people walk with their heads down. To me, it looks as if they're walking around with all their problems, but I might be wrong.
Whether they're trying to figure out what their problems are and how to solve them, or whether they're just shy and believe in maintaining privacy in an otherwise public space, is something I think about when I'm walking.
I try not to look down now when I walk, I try to look straight-ahead or look up at least a little bit, maybe because I have time now and I'm not so busy having my own problems.
