Stanley Park, United Kingdom

A little walk from my home.

Here, future runners, basketball stars, and FIFA champions are training themselves.

Tiny little feet are learning what walking means. 🧒 🚶

Teenagers are balancing on a single wheelmean, cycling. Some have become little fishermen, while others are writing pickup line to 😅.

A father patiently teaches his little princess how to ride a bicycle.

A couple walks by - the gentleman feeds the birds while the lady runs away from them.

A baby in a stroller smiles as if watching a black-and-white movie.

Young ladies and gentlemen (60+) are walking, jogging, and embracing good health.

A loyal guardian dog proudly roams alongside his two disabled companions and their human, as if saying, "I'm here to protect my family." 

Some people are quietly tapping away on their phones.

I don't like every aspect of the culture in the UK, for my own reasons. 

But I genuinely admire the balance many people maintain in their lives, and it's something I'm trying to adopt.

Holding willows in their hands-well, I mean books.

Walking without closing their ears to the world; without headphones.

Wishing strangers a good day.

Making time for both the chalkboard and the electronic page - books, tablets, and phones.

And most importantly, making time for themselves.

Sometimes, an ordinary walk is enough to remind us how beautifully different people choose to live.
