Proof that I’m actually in Beijing and not just posting stock photos at odd hours of the day.

故宫 (Forbidden City)

The thing is about being in a city like Beijing is that no matter what you’re doing, whether it’s taking a mundane 10-minute walk to the supermarket or visiting one of the city’s most celebrated historical landmarks, you will always be conscious of the sheer number of separate human lives thriving around you. There is a Chinese idiom called “人山人海” (literally translated as mountains and oceans of people) that is used to describe huge crowds, the type of busy thronging of human beings that messily mass together and drift apart. I personally hate crowds and walking through them this past week in the dry Beijing heat, it was often easier to dull them out as part of the scenery. But occasionally, when I had a quiet moment to contemplate a pebble or a drop among the 人山人海, it wasn’t quite as hard to see a passing individual as having a life that sprawled out from the point at which I observed them, just as if not more vivid and complex than my own. It’s then that I suddenly become inexplicably grateful, grateful for the abundant variety of life that I can perceive all around me.
