It’s a complex emotion—a blend of the past, yet intertwined with a "present" that is not truly present but rather, a vision of the future. I often wonder if I will ever witness that kind of future, the one we so often see depicted in films. Technology is advancing at such an unprecedented rate that it evokes both fear and awe in equal measure.

If not for the abundance of buildings in this place, I could easily imagine flying cars and towering advertisements displayed on enormous, futuristic screens. Yet, I’m unsure how I would react. There’s a vast difference between witnessing something come to fruition and entertaining it as mere fantasy—where human imagination can distort reality. Will it be as chaotic and noisy as it seems in my thoughts?

In this moment, I find myself here, attempting to perceive more than just the immediate surroundings. What lies beyond this view? All I can see are rows of identical apartments, rooms that mirror each other. Is there any happiness in such a place? I am not certain.
