“The most beautiful moments always seemed to accelerate and slip beyond one’s grasp just when you want to hold onto them for as long as possible.” ― E.A. Bucchianeri
Whether we like it or not, the ultimate reality of time is that we kill it. We save it. We rob and get robbed of it, we lose it, and yet we have all the time in the world. Sounds cliche, right? We are not powerful enough to stop the march of time or slow it down. And that is why days go by, seasons change, years pass, and become history, but most of us feel like things happened yesterday.
