Anonymous Omnscience


There is no better place to feel a tad more liberating than in the commute. Most people would defer so, but I tell them otherwise. I keep telling my friends that years from now I will publish a novella of sorts about my (mis)adventures in the wonderful and often-times eccentric world of trains, buses, metros, and planes.

It's the freedom of being a stranger among strangers.

Anonymity is underrated. It's the omniscience of being an observer, a watcher, or, if i could stretch it a bit more, dare say a storyteller. I can invent the best and the worst about anyone.
