I pick my bags and rush towards the metro station. I usually take the morning 8:30 Metro to work. It is a 40 minute ride. Wearing my formal suit and holding the black leather suitcase I take long strides down the stairs to the metro station. I have always enjoyed traveling by public transport to work. So even though I can afford a good personal vehicle, I have continued to live with the simple life-style like a common man. I stand at the platform, which is reasonably crowded as usual. Lots of pretty faces around at the platform. I have always enjoyed observing people just to kill time. I always try to wonder about what everyone is thinking, what kind of personal problems people might be going through and so on. I just have this brain that does not stop thinking. ~ ~ The metro arrives and I get inside along with the crowd.
