Myopia

This city is of extremes. There’s so much to see, to hear, to feel. It keeps her senses on high alert. She doesn’t want to miss anything. Everyday, she keeps dealing with the overload.

Then, one day, the city’s sharpness gets blurred.

She forgets her glasses at home. On purpose.

I must have missed this post earlier. Really like this one. As a wearer of spectacles, I can wholly relate to the blurring of senses.

Maybe i'll go out without specs too - perhaps when I'm not driving....or perhaps when I am!!
