Aller (To Go)

So many hours of our lives go unnoticed. So many miles are aimlessly walked. So many take technology and transportation for granted. So how can we ground ourselves? How can we appreciate the places we go and how we get there? From point A to point B, by car, by bus, a ride from our friend, or by our own feet, we all have to get there . Recording this data gives life’s stories a context. This happened there, that happened here. Having this exact diary of every place, at every time allows one to charish life’s daily tasks, pleasures and times of relaxation. This book’s purpose is exactly that. It is a one week compilation of every place I have been to, how I got there, when I went there and how far away it was from the prior point. It brought attention to the small details I never have noticed before. Some of these details sickened me (how much I am at work and how far I travel in one day to get there), and others made me realize how far I will walk or drive to see them.

ALLER (TO GO)<br />

OF ONE WEEK<br />

MICHAEL A. LEVY<br />

So many hours of our lives go<br />

unnoticed. So many m iles are<br />

aimlessly walked. So many take<br />

technology and transportation for<br />

granted. So how can we ground<br />

ourselves? How can we appreciate<br />

the places we go and how we get<br />

there?<br />

From point A to point B, by car, by<br />

bus, a ride from our friend, or by<br />

our own feet, we all have to get<br />

there . Recording this data gives<br />

life’s stories a context. This<br />

happened there, that happened<br />

here. Having this exact diary of<br />

every place, at every time allows<br />

one to charish life’s daily tasks,<br />

pleasures and times of relaxation.<br />

This book’s purpose is exactly<br />

that. It is a one week compilation<br />

of every place I have been to, how<br />

I got there, when I went there and<br />

how far away it was from the prior<br />

point. It brought attention to the<br />

small details I never have noticed<br />

before. Some of these details<br />

sickened me (how much I am at<br />

work and how far I travel in one<br />

day to get there), and others<br />

made me realize how far I will<br />

walk or drive to see them.<br />

However, this book’s u ltimate<br />

realization came once it was over<br />

and done with. Sometimes the<br />

road less traveled can take you to<br />

the most interesting place.
