Last month, I did outrageous thing in my life. Perhaps, it was insignificant for those who are adventurers. But I think, the adventurers dont adventure in the city ^ ^. In March 03, 2011, when I went out from my office about 17.30, I took usual route to get home. Actually, I didnt have any plan to go home right after the office hours. Yet, I didnt have any idea where to go. I just turned on my MP3 player and e-buddy account to get some inspiration (maybe). Then, I started to walk. Starting point was the sidewalk of Le Meridien Hotel, Sudirman, Jakarta and would be over at Kebon Sirih where my bus stop by. So, Instead of taking 'Metromini' and donating the dimes to 'Abang Metromini' to Kebon Sirih, I chose walk.
During "The afternoon footwork" I saw many things that I never saw when I took or drive the vehicle. I watched beautiful scenery ever in the city. Again, probably, you called it a exaggeration. But, I viewed the twilight. I saw the sky turns to be red/orange and sunset in this polluted city. Cant believe huh!..^ ^. More, I saw there are bunches of people living or taking rest on the side of Banjir Kanal Barat. I also saw many workers or voluntarily worker who are still on duty and offer their products to the people around. Smiling and waiving hands are their tools to attract people attention .
I took proximately an hour for stepping from Sudirman to Thamrin. I did rest in one of the Mosque behind Java Department Store and had some drink around Sabang. Luckily, when I got to Kebon Sirih, I saw my bus and directly took it to get home immediately. "Was I tired?" No doubt, I was extremely exhausted. However, There is always a good thing behind everything. When I woke up in the next morning, I felt fresh. I just burned hundreds of calories from my body and I felt light and I could see the light..hahahha. That's what I mean, when dimes mean a thing or many things for me.
