以步代车 The Pleasure of Walking
佚名/Anonymous
Walking gives us back our senses. We see, hear, smell the world as we never can when we ride. No matter what vehicle, it is the vehicle that is moving, not ourselves. We are trapped inside its fixed environment, and once we have taken in its sensory aspects mainly in terms of comfort or discomfort we turn off our perceptions and either go to sleep or open a magazine and begin dozing in and out.
