Parking....why is it that sometimes one can't? Out shopping today, meeting a girlfriend who was waiting to give me a book, mine which she'd borrowed for our book club, and I was trying to park..
So I parked, and then realised my car was skewed and trying to straighten it, I realised things were getting worse.
So what did I do, I locked my car and walked away. And it was only a little bit skew-whiff, so I left it and just hoped it would all work out well for my car by the time I got back to it; when I'd done my shopping, after seeing my girlfriend, and when the owner of the car next to mine had driven away.
There was plenty of space for the other car to drive away and I just didn't want to make things worse.
The more I drive I now realise how easy it is not to be perfect and to make mistakes or to just get it wrong.
According to my dictionary and research, spatial awareness is a person's ability to fix their position with that of things close by.
Now you standing anywhere can easily see how external things correspond with yourself but it's my contention that, put into an external thing, like a car say, then what you have is a body within a box, trying to manoeuvre both objects as one thing, within the sphere of another spatial notion.
We all want our own space to develop ourselves and grow but movement can be tricky, at the best of times, and today was not the best of time for me. So I stepped away from a situation I put myself into today and actually think I grew a little bit, which is kinda pleasing.
I shall do better next time.
