Everyone is absent, but they've left the lights on
 

I've walked these empty streets for years, and when I am traveling home at three in the morning, my body slowly shifts towards autopilot and my mind dislocates itself towards a greater sense of clarity. I am always struck by how many stores leaves their lights on overnight, and the large amount of lamps that are used for each road. 

I yearn for my life to imitate these early morning city streets, which not only hold the bareness of living and the minimum of activity, but a permanent luminescence that always guides you to your next destination.

Low to the Earth

While waiting for the bus, I often sit on the ground. Sometimes standing up has no modesty. There is balance in the world when children are above eye level.

Excuse Me
 

If you count all the people I have accidentally bumped into or slipped by on the street, then the one word I have said the most in my life is "sorry."

Blank Start is a journal of random and poignant ruminations. It is written with little audience in mind and few words to spare.
