Chapter 5

He found himself understanding the wearisome of life, where every path was an improvisation and a considerable part of one's waking life was spent looking at one's feet.”



I think that this quote refers to how most of one's life is spent looking down and not looking around and appreciating what is around us. We as humans are oblivious to the majority of our lives. Even though we may not notice, our lives are a blur and we can not help but to go through life and not “smell the roses” as we have heard the saying as children. Our lives are a state of confusion and the majority of the human race lives their whole live in that state of mind. This quote tells how this is actually how people live and it is normal. Everyone gets distracted or does not pay attention sometimes. Everyone gets unsocial sometimes and does not want to talk to everyone else or want to just listen to music. No one notices everything and no one always knows what is going on. People go through life confused and do not view and appreciate all the little things. This is natural. Though it is very sad, we truly can not fully change it.
