Whatβs one thing that would instantly improve your city?
My city has everything today, modern buildings, luxurious malls, beautiful cafΓ©s, comfortable roads and almost every convenience one could ask for.
And yet, if I could change just one thing, I would bring back a little quiet.
I miss the evenings of my childhood when the streets smelled of rain, the neighbourhood lights slowly came on, and someoneβs pressure cooker whistled from an open kitchen window.
I remember running downstairs without a phone, buying a βΉ5 ice lolly, and sitting beneath the old tree near our house until my mother called my name from the balcony.
Back then, I didn’t know those ordinary evenings were precious.
Today, the city is brighter, faster, taller and somehow, a little lonelier.
If I could change just one thing, I wouldn’t change its buildings or its luxuries.
I’d bring back one small corner where we could sit, breathe, and feel at home again.
Because sometimes, what we miss about a city isn’t the place.
It’s who we were when we lived there.

Agreed. I think maybe we could all use a little more of that quiet.

You are absolutely astounding to be the writer of this most romantic piece. The only alternative is to buy a small piece of land near sea Coast and build a small house there and to spend each evening waves kissing your feet
