My second auto-ethnography is walking through gravel. This
also is something I believe is something that has become such an everyday
activity, there is so much inner detail left unnoticed. When I see gravel I
think dirty and relate my feelings to pain and discomfort, I link this to what
I feel when I walk through gravel. I feel the uneven texture underneath my feet
which gives me an uneasy feeling like walking on broken glass. The sound is
like short bursts of noise much like an old tv searching for reception, also I
think it is a very intrusive sound as it is loud and sounds like someone is
walking slowly and uneasily.
100 word analysis
I hear the rigid hard gravel traffic beneath my feet; a
sharp tingle is dispersed through my spine. I feel pain and discomfort as I
surge through the thick, dense layer of scattered rock. Every small step feels
uneasy as I try to keep quiet, the gravel sounds and feels like broken glass,
just waiting to pierce through my shoe soul as every step I take feels one step
closer to pain. The uneven surface fails to secure my place on the rippled
ground as I slip further into the gritty surface.
