The act of queuing in today’s society



We all are victims of uninterruptedly looking at our screens, whenever there’s downtime. A wait at a restaurant for a meal, a coffee break at a Café, lining up to order any drinks or food, especially in NYC, a subway or train ride, elevator, prior to boarding a plane, the list could go on and on.

Looking up and being aware of our surroundings, catching their gaze, and even start a conversation.

I’m an actor of it too, lining up to order a drink and writing podcast notes. Yesterday, I sat in a Café by myself and just did some people watching on a hustle bustle Friday late summer evening in New York. I noticed how I felt a bit uncomfortable not having my phone near me. I thought of everyone around on their phones or in conversations. This made me aware of the socially new normal way and my “odd” way of just being in the moment, relaxing, taking the human experience in with all senses. Such a wonderful feeling and experience, very very relaxing and calming body and mind. I felt very at peace with myself and happy to have experienced that.


Go out on your own and do a look up moment. Enjoy the unique experience, trust in yourself ☀️
