The Seoul Blog - Slow Down and Look at the Purple Flowers




When I was in Gyeongbokgung in Gwanghwamun one day I noticed people zipping and zooming by these nice flowers without so much as the slightest glance. Seoul people: stop! Slow down! Look around you! Look at this beauty! There's time to enjoy life and it's many gifts. Don't hurry your lives away on meaningless hustle and bustle. For what do you pass up these flowers for? Can you even remember last Thursday? How about last Friday at 6:00? What were you doing then? It's not too late to start enjoying today! Oops, look at the time. I have to hurry off to class.
