Days gathered into weeks, weeks into seasons, seasons into years—each one carrying a recognizable rhythm. Even when life felt fast or slow, there was still a structure beneath it all. Something that held the sequence together. Now, that structure feels… less defined. Not gone. Just harder to feel. It starts with small things. A day that seems to disappear before it begins.

You begin to notice the inconsistency. Time doesn’t flow. It shifts.

Something your body recognized before your mind even noticed. Now, those cues feel… inconsistent. A warm day arrives too early. A cold stretch lingers too long. Storms show up out of sequence. And while each moment can be explained on its own, together they begin to create so...
