Where Does Time Go?

Sometimes it feels like I’ve just… disappeared.

And I wonder-

did anyone notice?

Because I’m wondering too.

Where does the time go?

You sit down for just a moment.

To look.

To check.

To rest.

And suddenly-

it’s already the next day.

You barely saw it pass.

I keep thinking.

Maybe this is the strange thing about people.

We are always rushing.

Always going somewhere.

Always chasing something.

And somewhere in between-

we lose time for ourselves.

We have so many things

that were meant to make life easier.

Technology.

Speed.

Comfort.

But somehow…

there is less and less time

to pause.

To notice.

To breathe.

To think.

Or simply… to dream.

Sometimes it feels like

we look at screens

not because something is there-

but because we are afraid of the silence.

Afraid of that moment

when we are left alone

with ourselves.

And then I wonder-

maybe we don’t need another screen.

Maybe we just need a moment.

A real one.

Without rushing.

Without noise.

Just…

to be.
