Yesterday, seeing that is 4 am I was walking on the road when i met this person. He was walking on the road, his arms behind his back in what many might describe as 'the preoccupied walker' position. Moving on, the preoccupied walker had only a little deject from the average preoccupied walkers, his head was held up as he watched the sky instead of down on the ground.
Anyway, so this guy walked like that but every time he came next to a political poster he stood still and scowl at the poster and then carry out looking skywards acting like nothing has happened. It was early in the morning and i was half asleep, but i could remember that the guy was pretty old and i noted that he stood and scowled at each poster, whatever color or logo the poster was. I felt so curious about what was going on through his mind. I mean, he didn't look senile but looking at the sky so much can make one question it. Somehow, this preoccupied walker has remained in the back of my head for some while. Thinking a lot into this, i think there is two possibilities about it.
First, he just doesn't like politics. In general. He hates all of it and he would rather just smoke a ciggerate and sit back and watch a football match or something than the whole political fiasco. But i thought this was less likely than otherwise. And there is reason to this. First of all, he is an old man. And men of that age, generally has a liking to the current events of the country. Secondly, he was definitely a thoughtful man. And the type that i mentioned above, are the i-dont-give-a-damn-about-the-world-as-long-as-i-get-through-the-world type.
As for the alternative, i think he is one of the people in this nation who is fed up of the party divisions. Yellow, Blue, Purple. He is one of the people who wants to see the old maldives. United. Red, Green, White.
Either way, i wish i had stopped to talked to him but being stranger phobic and running very late, i didn't.
