1 Min Fiction #2

Lying down on the pavement, head on my rucksack, I observe the people rushing about.
Hurrying everywhere.
Heads down, scrolling through their phone.
Some wear headphones.

So busy with their lives, no time to stop.
To observe.
To learn.
To breathe.
To realise, to enjoy.

You’re alive!

What’s the “One Minute Fiction” challenge about?
Each week I’ll provide a prompt to inspire you to write a very short story. The idea is to manage to type your whole story in a minute or less. Of course, you can think about it before hitting the keyboard, and you can take all your time to edit it afterwards…
