Imagine if the bench you’re
sitting on could read your mind. What if it had a voice? What if it knew that
you lie daily, in your marriage, in your job, to the mirror, to the world?
Upon a bright red bench, there is guilt, confusion, stupidity, and even the
desire to commit a crime and get away with it. The bench knows you are here
to seek wisdom and calmness and all those virtues that you observe and admire
in the lives of others. In this story of stories, there are bankers, artists,
engineers, journalists,designers, dreamers and doers, who roam the world in
search of attention and approval. When their ordinary lives bring them to a
bench, they find life-altering realisations. There is a journey inwards into
the present, the bright red present―how often do you take it?
