I live in the densest city on Earth. A few moments ago: No phone, just observing, eating alone in a mall i don’t frequent near the entrance to a train station.
I’m seeing people leaving the train terminal to the mall, and people going the other way. Some in a hurry, some obviously new to the place, some clearly haggard, some about to have some fun with friends, some fresh and going to work, some retirees just walking, some on a routine path home glued on their phones.
Sometimes it’s just interesting to pause and observe.
