The Walker
I love Walking (wô’kĭng)
In fact, in my life i walk a lot. I can’t remember at what age i walked for the very first time. But mom told me that i was a quick-walker.
First time i really enjoy walking was when i was junior high… coz my house is not so far from the school… and the road i’d always taken is full of tall and thick trees… Ever since, i enjoy walking.
I walk every morning to angkot-stop (if there’s a bus-stop..why can’t there be an angkot-stop?) when i go to work and every night from angkot stop to my cozy bed.
When i have problems… i usually take a walk at quite night alone and i’ll feel better. When things getting worse at the office… i usually walk through Taman Sari to Wasukencana (though it’s not a pedestrian-friendly area) and see the activities around and i’ll feel whole lot better after.
I love to walk under the tender rain… it feels great when the water touches my skin and the cold wind blows my neck. Though it gives me flu, headache and fever, but i love it.
I love to walk barefeet on the narrow path in the rice field. The mud is so fun yet dirty and slippery… so i have to balance my steps and concentrate… or else i’ll fall.
I love walking on the beach… Pangandaran, Pelabuhan Ratu, Kuta, Losari, Teluk Bayur, Anyer, everywhere… and feels the sands tickling my barefeet. The sound of the sea and the view of the horizon make me appreciate this gorgeous life of mine.
Let’s walk with me…
Can i be your friend ’till the end. Can I walk with you through your life… - Erykah Badu
