Time is vexing indeed.

Sometimes it goes by in a flash

of light and sometimes seems slow

as quicksand and things that you

think are well thought out will be seen as rash.

Catch-22 was part of my classic novel goal this year! Incredible book. Here’s my review. https://www.millersbookreview.com/p/joseph-heller-catch-22

We created Time for the sake of measurement. In actuality, this moment is all we have and there it goes. 'aane wala pal, jaane wala hai'.

Indeed. One of my favourite books is on this very subject - "The Order of Time" by Carlo Rovelli. And I also refer to that song here: https://sneakyart.substack.com/i/34276022/but-first-a-ramble-about-time

Time really can feel elusive Nishant. While creating in rural areas , I find time feels like it is stretched and has less constraints. Age really does make a difference in one's perception of time. We definitely become more aware of its passing as compared to youthful days when we felt we had all the time in the world. Welcome back to the in-between time of summer and winter! :)
