I wonder if they appreciate it

I always wonder if people who reside in really beautiful cities appreciate it. 🤔

Like do they ever just stop to look around and admire the sights, the sounds, the beauty of the architecture, the smell of the bakeries and restaurants around them? The lull of traffic and construction and faraway sirens that indicate a bustling thriving place? Do they notice the fall colors in the trees, and how beautifully they enrich the city? Do they feel like one of the useful functioning cogs in the city machine? In a strange sense, that feeling always made me feel safe when I lived in the city.

I am definitely a city girl at heart and I can't wait to get back to one. 🏙🥰
