faster than ever.

Sometimes I wonder if I’m in a different time zone.

It feels like before I even wake up to check my phone, someone has already built a house in less than twenty seconds. I take a few steps, and someone else is already campaigning for the Presidency. I’m still standing in my pink PJs, trying to get my life together and decide what my next meal will be, and then I get a text saying everyone is moving to Dubai. Literally.

As if that isn’t enough pressure on my neck for the entire week, I still have a truckload of to-do lists waiting to be ticked off.

That’s what life has been looking like lately.

Between the heap of tasks I need to complete, the values I have to uphold, and the boundaries I must set for the sake of my sanity, waves of to-dos keep coming—renewing every six seconds. Sometimes I genuinely wonder if people have the same twenty-four hours in a day that I do. Like, how are you online 24/7 and still traveling across five different continents at the same time?

And as if that still isn’t enough, I find myself wondering how some people manage to do laundry, chores, assignments, and still maintain a personal life—all at once. It makes me question, again, if I’m in a different time zone… because tell me why it feels like everyone is moving at 220,000 km/h?

I know you get what I mean. Maybe we’re on the same boat, maybe not. But my dear, don’t let pressure pressure you. Do you. Give yourself a healthy push—and if you like, push yourself off the cliff. 

The world will still keep moving faster than ever.
