Day 14 The Secret Garden

Day 14. Every lunch break we try to get out of the office and walk a bit. Sitting for 8-9 hours a day in front of the computer is hard on us. The streets are full of people hunting places in the restaurants around, or simply standing in a spot of sunshine.
People, people everywhere…
Until we found this little fenced out back yard of another office building, which actually requires you to walk hunched under some bushes to reach.
Inside, the busy street safely on the other side of the tall hedge, were some traces of human activity. Newspapers, soft drinks boxes, cigarette butts… But no person an noon at all.
In the day time this place seems to be visited occasionally just by gardeners. Who we haven’t met yet.
The rest are flowers and lots of insects. Bees, flies, spiders… Blooming trees. Rose fragrance, as of today.
Just 15 minutes spent walking by the rose bushes and we felt rebalanced.
We knew what the important things in life are – office deadlines, or the flight of a bee around a sunlit flower.
