LA-Passing by

LA-Passing by

by Rob Costlow

Listening to the wonderful piece of music, I cannot help myself but feel isolated from humanity and cityscape. I don't know what Rob meant in this music title, but the title suggested to me what the music feels-to travel through a densely populated city, nobody notices you even when you left. That feeling of insignificant is sometimes melancholic.

How often does time pass me by without me noticing? Every day the second hand in the clock is ticking away, I cannot do anything to stop it. Time is moving while I can choose to move along it, or to stay at where I am contentedly. However I choose to remain unchanged, time will find a way to change me. So I rather lift up my soul, and flow with the current of time. Be amazed with the glory of God has created on this awesome world, and wipe off all the sadness stained on my heart. There is simply too much grace to witness around me, and I should not keep a blind eye on appreciating them.

Appreciation is the most important things that life has granted me to feel my soul inside. No matter how far I passed by, no matter how many people I've crossed without them noticing me, I appreciate those who have shared their sincerity and happiness with me. Thank you.

And this city, although hectic and sometimes ugly, is still a precious diamond to enjoy.
