restful thinking

You need time with your thoughts to be able to write...
or at least restful thinking, thoughtful resting...
take a minute to slow down
to take in everything around you
for there cannot be thought without observation
so the tube is a funny place
I know reams have been written about the lack of eye contact
but I think we should all try it
without being creepy
perhaps after we can cope with eye contact
we could even muster a smile
you never know 
Someone might actually smile back
and we can spread the happy
amongst the harassed, harangued commuters
perhaps everyone can have a better day!
I write this with my eyes glued to my phone...
