Slow

I miss secondary school life. Seriously. I have no intention or wish to go back in time or anything but I'm just, saying, it was nice back then. Why? Well, I'm gonna say it's because I'm always moving there. I can't remember a time when I stop. There's always things to do, people to meet and activities to be had. We dread going to school every morning, but we always stayed until everyone has left. Do anyone of you remember those times? I do. I never had to move so fast that all I saw was blur or so slow that a snail could pass me by. No, I breezed through the greatest four years of my life, walking. Now, I head off to school dreading another day doing the same thing over and over again. And I'd die just to go home. I miss the times when we'd just walk together, chatting away about stuff so trivial that no one man would turn his head in curiosity. The world is just coming to a halt. The end will come if men continues to stop. "Walking gets the feet moving, the blood moving, the mind moving. And movement is life" Said Carrie Latet. And life on Earth is ending as we know it for we forgot the true meaning of movement. We sit behind our computer screens and desk everyday, communicating through devices to convey one sentence that would have otherwise required us to move our hands to write out an essay.

Walking takes longer... than any other known form of locomotion except crawling. Thus it stretches time and prolongs life. Life is already too short to waste on speed. ~Edward Abbey, "Walking"

As from the aforementioned sentence, why do we humans still continue to speed pass our life? Moving so fast that we shoved seconds worth of enjoyment into one minute and we are unable to enjoy the world as we could have while slowed.

And for those who knows I practive Parkour, you might ask that I'm actually contradicting myself, saying we should all slow down when I'm learning to move fast. Well, my answer is this.

Above all, do not lose your desire to walk. Every day I walk myself into a state of well-being and walk away from every illness. I have walked myself into my best thoughts, and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it. ~Soren Kierkegaard

Too much problem, too little time. Moving is my only cure and I have to run from it for if I walk, my pain and sadness and all the badness will catch up to me.
