As it has so many times before, a certain thought popped into my head while I was riding in someone's vehicle last week.
Drivers: Some are cautious, some are not. Some focus on the road, some focus on themselves. Then I realized it applies to people on foot - and just about anywhere you go.
Consider: The I'm-in-a-hurry shopper cutting a path through the congested mall on a Sunday. Then the one you can't seem to get around because they're ambling along too slowly. Coworkers so determined to get where they are going sometimes they forget to stop and say hi. Other colleagues who take a leisurely approach and still do a magnificent job. People waiting at the bus stop. People running for the bus stop. The woman waiting patiently in the nail salon for her appointment. The one that rushes in and demands to know the wait time for a walk-in. You see them at the airport, the grocery store, at baseball games.
Which one are you?

Hey! i like this entry. i like to just sit and watch people sometimes it's so much fun. like at a mall or at an amusement (or abusement) park such as disneyland. when we went this past july to disneyland, it seemed like ten times more crowded than what i'd remembered it being the last two times we went. i dunno if it was the 50th birthday celebration thing or what...but there were people EVERYWHERE, i mean that should be expected of Disneyland, but damn it was crazy. anyways...it's fun to just watch people. the way they walk, their actions, and wonder what they're thinking too. it's crazy. haha...enough of my novel...take care!!
Did you ride the Indiana Jones ride?
