No. 15/100 100-word short stories for my 100 follower celebration!
It’s busy, but there’s an order to it. A rhythm. I’ve always thought that big cities are like a human body, with a heartbeat, a nervous system, and cells that rush around too and fro. I wonder if our bodies are this noisy on the inside.
Most say this isn’t a place for stopping, but if you don’t, you miss it all. With every beat of your heart, something new is happening somewhere in this vast metropolis. Even just a blink is a moment missed.
All you can do is learn the rhythm, and move with it as you go.

This post was inspired by the time I’ve spent in London and New York City; if you enjoy reading about my travels, check out these posts!
