How often do I catch myself walking in the city with my eyes down watching the pavement and the flow of faceless people passing by. The city can do that to us, it can make us reduce humanity to a flow of bodies passing by, forgetting that each one of them has a story, a life and a face.

Powerful words and image, Mimo. I’m guilty of that as well when I’m in the city.
Hi Robin! Great to hear from you again. I have to make my way back to your blog 🙂
it’s because of schedules …. we should come up with jobs to enjoy, not jobs being there as timetables and schedules …
Yes, they play a very big part! Thank you for your comment

I can imagine!
Such a powerful image! Almost doesn’t need words as it tells such a strong story on its own.
Thanks dear Lynda!
Compassion must rise up once again to see one another. Thanks for sharing the image.
This is so true, sometimes we know more about their shoes then the person wearing them
Good way of putting it 🙂
