Commonplace Narrative Essay

Speaking of Commonplace essay, I decided to write about the exercise of stair climbing. This is an interesting topic to me because I think ever since lift or elevator services have been provided almost everywhere, less and less people prefer walking up the stair to upper levels. I also find that people always undermine the benefits stair climbing brings to us. It is actually an exercise. As more and more people complaining that they do not have enough time to exercise, they on the other hand, are wasting opportunities everyday to get their body healthy by climbing stairs. Despite for the sake of health, I would also want to write about this topic to recall back some of my childhood memories. When I was young, I used to stair climbed with my siblings and we always competed with each other to be the first one to reach the top. It was a fun and precious memory my brothers and I shared. Not only that, I can still remember clearly all the old places I have been to when I was young because of the stairs that I have climbed there. In other word, stair climbing is an activity that is important in my life. As people are getting too dependent on elevators, we refuse to use the stairs even if we are going to one or two floors above from where we are. Eventually, people start thinking that stairs are merely a second preferable way to reach upper floors other than taking the elevators. Therefore, I decided to spread the information of the benefits of stair climbing to people so that people will start appreciating the exercise of stair climbing.
