I lost time in a good way

Dear Delyara, I haven’t had that feeling in a while. The good kind of lost time. The kind that happens when your attention is gently absorbed, not hijacked. No doom-scrolling. No anxious distraction. No emotional avoidance disguised as entertainment. Just actual presence in something creative and unnecessary and human. I looked up and was surprised by how much time had passed. That felt almost sacred. I think I need more activities that return me to myself without asking me to produce a better version of myself in the process.
