The ills of modern cities
The most glaring ill of modern cities is that the people in it
are always in a hurry. Businesspeople, wage-earners,
laborers, pedlars, crooks and assorted characters all rush
about in their activities. It is rush, rush and more rush. City
folks rush to work, rush to get their work done, rush to
have lunch and rush home. Then perhaps they rush to
have dinner or rush to a party. Finally in the early hours of
the morning it is a rush to, as they say, grab some sleep
before the rush next morning.
I was in Sydney, Australia, for a visit once. As I took a
leisurely stroll along the city streets, I was amazed at how
everyone seemed to be walking very quickly past me.
Even old ladies of seventy simply overtook me without any
difficulty. Some younger ones were actually running
towards God knows where. To cross the busy roads,
everyone crowded near the traffic lights. The moment the
lights changed to green for the pedestrians, they took off
not unlike sprinters off the blocks. That was a rush indeed.
I was forced to walk quickly too, otherwise I was likely to
be trampled on by the crowd.
NO wonder modern city-dwellers suffer from all sorts of
stress-r
