Be Mindful When Walking
Its the monsoon season in Singapore, with bright sunny weather in the morning and heavy rain in the afternoon.
Recently I noticed many snails being squashed flat by people on the pavement. I think it's good to be mindful when walking and be careful not to step on the snails who are out of the wet muddy grass. That's why whenever I walk, I will look ahead and try to avoid stepping on the snails. Sometimes when I see them in the middle of the pavement, I will just put them on the side of pavement. Perhaps there should be a signboard to advise pedestrians to be mindful of stepping on snails.
