HOLIDAY
AND ESCAPE

Michael:
I wish people wouldn’t go on about their holidays so much. All they
talk about is where they went last year and where they are going next
year.

Trevor:
Well, why shouldn’t they?

M: Because
they are living more and more in a dream world.

T: What
do you mean?

M: Well,
they are not really interested in their jobs so they

spend
all their time thinking about the two or three weeks they have off.

T: I
still don’t see what’s wrong with that.

M: Well
I do. People should live life as it is.

T: You
are taking it a bit seriously, aren’t you? Holidays are

only
relaxation.

M: But
they could be so much more — education, culture,

the
chance to meet different people … In spite of all our dashing
around we don’t know each other any better.

T: I
suppose there is something in that, but you will never

stop
people using their holidays just to escape their trou­bles.

TEXT
1 ■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

THE
ONLY WAY TO TRAVEL IS ON FOOT

When
anthropologists turn their attention to the twentieth century, they
will surely choose the label “Legless Man”. His- tones of the
time will go something like this: in the twentieth century people
forgot how to use their legs. Men and women moved about in cars,
buses and trains from a very early age. The surprising thing is that
they didn’t use their legs even when they went on holiday. They
built cable railways, ski-lifts and roads to the top of every huge
mountain.

The
future history books might also record that we did not use our eyes.
In our hurry to get from one place to another, we failed to see
anything on the Way. Air travel gives you a bird’s- eye view of the
world. Car drivers in particular, never want to stop. The typical
twentieth-century traveller is the man who al­ways says “I’ve
been there” — meaning, “I drove through it at 100 miles an hour
on the way to somewhere else.”

When
you travel at high speeds the present means nothing: you live mainly
in the future, because you spend most of your time looking forward to
arriving at some other place. But actu­al arrival when it is
achieved is meaningless. You want to move on again. The traveller on
foot, on the other hand, lives con­stantly in the present. He
experiences to present moment with his eyes, his ears and whole of
his body. At the end of his jour­ney he feels a delicious
physical weariness. He knows that sound satisfying sleep will be his:
the just reward of all true travellers.
