walking
Walking is lauded as the most primitive and free form of locomotion, yet in practice it demands a costly tribute of time and effort. With each step, one is peeled a little further from the conveniences of civilization, forced into a dialogue with personal lethargy. Claimed as a health-conscious choice, it humbles every pedestrian before traffic lights and steep inclines. Chosen by those lacking the courage for more convenient transport, it alternates between self-satisfaction and guilt. Touted as a multisensory urban experience, it is, at its core, a self-imposed limited tour.
