Daily routines from "summary" of Riding the Bus with My Sister by Rachel Simon
Every person has routines that structure their day, but for my sister, her daily routines are especially important. She relies on these routines to provide a sense of stability and predictability in her life. Without them, she can feel lost and anxious. One of her most important routines is taking the bus. Every day, rain or shine, she waits at the bus stop for the same bus to arrive. This routine gives her a sense of purpose and independence. It allows her to feel like she is part of the world around her, not just an observer. Once she is on the bus, she has a set routine for how she interacts with the other passengers and the driver. She greets everyone with a smile and a friendly hello, creating a sense of community within the bus. This routine helps her feel connected to others and less isolated in her daily life. Another important routine for my sister is her daily walks. She walks the same route every day, rain or shine, taking in the sights and sounds of the neighborhood. This routine gives her a sense of peace and tranquility, allowing her to clear her mind and focus on the present moment.- These daily routines serve as anchors in my sister's life. They provide structure, purpose, and connection in a world that can often feel chaotic and overwhelming. Through these routines, she is able to navigate her daily life with confidence and grace, finding joy and meaning in the simple moments of each day.
