Stuck in Traffic

Getting stuck in traffic at the end of a busy day can be quite interesting, provided of course your stomach is not screaming "FOOD!".My stomach was doing just that while I was stuck in traffic this evening.However, my crafty mind thought of ways to ignore the stubborn stomach.I started to observe other fellow members of this stuck-in-traffic community.Some were yawning while others were muttering and swearing.Some were gazing all the way to infinity while others were having animated conversations with fellow passengers.Of course I have to mention those who had a phone stuck to their ears and speaking non stop on god knows what to god knows who.Yours truly apparently belonged to the category of weirdos who think of things to write on their blog once they get home.


Lo and behold! Rain Gods decided to grace these poor souls stuck in traffic with their presence.I have to admit though rain brought a beautiful mystical quality to this evening which was otherwise quite drab.Watching rain drops slowly slide down the windscreen can be very calming indeed.I let my eyes roam out side once more over the blurred vehicle lights and rushing pedestrians.May be there is a hidden beauty on a traffic filled urban highway after all.May be we are always too busy running around to no where in particular, that we don't realise that beauty is where we are right now.May be its time to stop for a minute and open our eyes to appreciate the subtle charm of the city.


May be it was time to feed my poor stomach.
