Henry in NYC

I am a relatively new addition to the NYC scene. This is my story of growing here. This blog is dedicated to my NYC experience, no matter how trivial some parts of it might be.

INLINING


Inlining is another way of transitioning through life. You glide from place to place instead of stepping. The environment rushes past you - it is the difference between seeing a powerpoint presentation with a speed of 2 seconds vs 10 seconds between slides. One lets you memorize every detail at the risk of becoming bored. The other excites you and can overwhelm you, demanding that you process information much faster.

Then there is the height. The world perceives you differently when you are 6'1" than when you are 5'10" and you perceive it differently.

There is the thrill of negotiating crowds who haphazardly change quickly into your lane or the car who jumps too quickly at a light you are trying to beat.
Mostly though it is just a pure pleasure of the act.
