Mass of People

Tokyo is a mass of sea of people. It's amazing how we all move like ants, day after day after day, to do whatever we do. And then we retreat to our boxes to return to the same routine.It makes you really wonder what we are all here for. Sometimes I only see human shells, without souls that usually follow within. Men and women (sometimes including me perhaps) packed in "densha", with ghastly, empty eyes. Sometimes you see people who are smiling listening to music from their walkman, people constantly playing with their mobile, or just plain tired and fall asleep as soon as they sit down....or even sleep while standing.The view outside is a jumble of concrete as far as your eyes can see. The only relief I found is the patches of green scattered over, with the sound of summer bug, "semi". It is really relaxing to hear those bugs make their noise, something I can connect myself to nature.........Observation from Tokyo living
