Life moves too fast for us to see how it flows most of the time. As the days go by, the same routes become familiar, and you only pay attention to things that are clear, important, or pressing. Some places are still not clear, like empty rooms, quiet corners, and streets that aren't being used. Shadows also show up when the light doesn't reach all the way. Most of the time, people avoid, ignore, or dismiss these places as not important. We might learn a lot from them if we take the time to look at them. Nothing is empty in shadows, stillness, or places that aren't looked at. They're full of secrets about life, decisions, and what happens when you pay attention or don't pay attention.

It had been years for people like us, who are the main characters of this story, to understand these gaps. They thought about other people, their plans, their duties, their normal routes, and what other people wanted from them. Dark places and silence, which were the only things there, were the worst places to be. We learn things from life even when we're not aware of it. I began to pay attention to small things, hints, and marks that other people had left behind. At first, they saw a mark in the dust, a faint echo in a dark tunnel, and a shadow that fell in a way that seemed planned. Over time, these small discoveries showed how being present, having a choice, and being aware are all connected to the things we can learn from the world around us.
