In "Time: A User's Guide," Stefan Klein discusses how people are conditioned to measure time by mechanical clocks, neglecting their internal rhythms. Each individual's unique sense of time often contradicts the structured minutes and hours dictated by society. Events like blackouts reveal this divergence, as individuals recognize that their internal experience of time can feel eternal. During the pandemic, many found solace in slowing down and prioritizing meaningful activities over a relentless pace, igniting discussions on our relationship with time.
Many embraced the opportunity to do something that until then seemed impossible in a frenetic world: stopping.
Although time is the most valuable thing, as it can't be bought, we've become accustomed to passing time, not necessarily living it.
