The World’s Confusing Clock Ritual
Every year, millions of people wake up to the same question: “Do we move the clock forward or back this time?” It’s one of those rare traditions that still manages to confuse a digital generation; Daylight Saving Time.
In 2025, this ritual continues across most parts of the United States and several other countries. Clocks will spring forward on March 9 and fall back again on November 2, following a system that’s been in place for more than a century. Yet, each year the frustration grows louder. People complain of sleep loss, dark mornings, and longer evenings that don’t really feel necessary anymore.
Search engines fill with questions like:
“When does the time change?” “What states are getting rid of daylight saving time?” “Do we still need this?”
It’s a debate that mixes history, habit, and human psychology. Once a clever wartime invention to save energy, Daylight Saving Time (DST) now feels like an outdated puzzle that few understand — but everyone must follow.
From a “Why” perspective, this topic matters because it reflects something deeper: our relationship with time itself. We’ve built global routines, trade systems, and work cultures around this shifting clock — and yet, as the world grows more connected, our patience for it is fading.
In this article, we’ll unpack:
- Why DST was created in the first place,
- How it shaped economies and daily life,
- Why so many people and states want to end it,
- And what this all means for 2025 — a year when the debate is stronger than ever.
Why Daylight Saving Time Was Created
Before we had smartphones to remind us of the clock change, the world ran on sunlight. Factories opened with the dawn, and people’s routines followed nature’s rhythm. But when the Industrial Age arrived, daylight became more than just a natural cycle — it became an economic asset.
That idea gave birth to what we now call Daylight Saving Time.
The earliest proposal came in 1895, when George Hudson, an entomologist from New Zealand, suggested moving the clock forward by two hours in summer so he could have more daylight to collect insects after work. Most people laughed it off at the time — until World War I changed everything.
During the war, Germany was the first country to officially adopt DST in 1916 to conserve coal used for lighting. Soon after, the United States and much of Europe followed. The logic was simple:
“Use daylight, save fuel, win the war.”
When the war ended, many dropped the practice. But it returned in World War II, again as an energy-saving measure. After the war, chaos followed — some cities kept it, others didn’t. You could literally cross from one county to another and find the clock an hour off.
To end that confusion, the U.S. Congress passed the Uniform Time Act in 1966, setting clear nationwide rules: clocks would move forward in spring and fall back in autumn. (U.S. Department of Transportation, History.com)
At its core, DST was never about “more daylight” — nature provides that regardless. It was about how humans choose to use that daylight for productivity and efficiency. In a world powered by factories and fluorescent lights, time became something to manipulate for convenience.
But here’s the irony:
What began as a wartime necessity turned into a yearly tradition that outlived the reason it was created for.
Today, in a society that runs 24/7 — powered by screens and LEDs — the idea of “saving daylight” feels almost poetic… and perhaps unnecessary.
How Countries View Time Differently
Time might be universal, but how we use it is anything but. If you travel across continents in November, you’ll notice something odd — some countries are adjusting their clocks, others aren’t, and a few barely remember what Daylight Saving Time ever was.
This isn’t chaos — it’s culture.
In the early 20th century, as the idea of Daylight Saving Time (DST) spread from Europe to North America, not everyone was convinced. Countries closer to the equator, where daylight doesn’t vary much year-round, saw no point in changing the clock. Why fix what isn’t broken?
So today, you’ll find three types of nations:
- Those that still observe DST — like the United States, Canada, and parts of Europe.
- Those that ended it long ago — such as Japan, India, China, and most of Africa.
- Those constantly debating it — like Australia, Brazil, and the European Union.
Europe, for example, once ran a synchronized DST schedule — until public sentiment turned against it. In 2019, the European Parliament voted to abolish seasonal clock changes, but the decision got delayed due to political and logistical complexities. Many EU members still switch clocks while waiting for a final consensus. (European Parliament News)
In the United States, the divide goes deeper. Hawaii and most of Arizona refuse to follow DST, sticking to standard time year-round. Meanwhile, states like Florida, Washington, and Texas have voted to make DST permanent — but federal law prevents them from doing so without congressional approval. (Time.com)
Globally, this creates a strange kind of time dissonance. In March and November, international meetings, airline schedules, and even streaming releases get tangled in temporary time shifts. One country wakes earlier; another lags behind. A single hour separates business partners, yet it’s enough to disrupt calls, flights, and trade.
In a world that trades in milliseconds — from stock exchanges to Zoom meetings — this human-made adjustment feels outdated. Still, it survives because time, unlike money or borders, is something we’ve never learned to manage collectively.
Why People Want to Get Rid of It
When Daylight Saving Time first began, it promised progress. Now, for millions, it just feels like a disruption.
Every March, people lose an hour of sleep. Every November, they gain it back — but at a cost. The body doesn’t reset as easily as a clock. Sleep researchers have found that the biannual shift messes with our natural circadian rhythm, leading to fatigue, irritability, and even short-term health risks.
A 2020 study by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine reported higher rates of heart attacks and workplace injuries in the days following the spring time change. Doctors call it “social jet lag” — a mini version of flying across time zones without leaving your bed. (Source: AASM Health Advisory on Daylight Saving Time, 2020)
But health isn’t the only reason people are tired of the clock shuffle. The real frustration lies in how outdated it feels.
In 1918, DST saved energy. In 2025, it barely moves the needle. LED lighting and 24-hour work culture have erased the original logic of “saving daylight.” Instead, the switch disrupts sleep cycles, school schedules, trading hours, and even mental well-being.
For remote workers and global businesses, it’s an even bigger headache. A company in New York and a client in London might suddenly be five hours apart one week, then four the next — just because one country changed the clock first. The result: missed calls, misaligned calendars, and plenty of confusion.
And then there’s politics. In the U.S., nearly 30 states have introduced bills to stop the time change, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. Some want permanent standard time (like Arizona), while others want permanent daylight time (like Florida). But under the Uniform Time Act, states need federal approval to make DST permanent — and Congress hasn’t moved on it yet. (NCSL DST Legislation Tracker, 2024)
Public opinion, however, has already shifted. Surveys by YouGov and CBS News show that nearly 60% of Americans want to end the clock changes for good. And similar sentiment is rising in Canada, the UK, and parts of Europe.
What was once seen as a clever way to align with daylight is now viewed as a biannual annoyance — one that no longer fits the rhythm of modern life.
The world hasn’t stopped spinning. But twice a year, we still pretend it does.
Daylight Saving Time 2025 — What’s Changing This Year
This year, if you live in the U.S., the reminder will come: yes — it’s time again.
- The clocks will “spring forward” on Sunday, March 9, 2025 at 2:00 a.m. local time — that means at 2:00 a.m., the clock jumps ahead to 3:00 a.m. ABC News+2TIME+2
- Then, later, they’ll “fall back” on Sunday, November 2, 2025 at 2:00 a.m. when we return to standard time by setting the clock back one hour. Time and Date+1
Why these dates matter
When we set the clock ahead in March, evenings stay lighter longer. Sounds good — but the cost is losing that hour of sleep, and the mornings get darker for a while. When we revert in November, we get that hour back — nice if you’re an early riser — but the trade-off is earlier sunsets and darker evenings sooner.
For 2025, that means from March to November most of the U.S. will operate under DST. But the moment standard time returns, routines shift — dinner, commute, even mood might feel different.
Who is not switching
It’s worth remembering: not everyone follows this shift.
- Hawaii and most of Arizona (excluding the Navajo Nation) do not observe DST — they stay on standard time all year. Wikipedia+1
- U.S. territories like Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa and others also do not use DST. Time and Date
If your work, meetings, or calls link you to people in those places — or to other countries with different rules — you’ll still need to pay attention. For example: when you’re expecting someone at 9 a.m. your time, the counterpart might shift a different hour around you.
What’s special about 2025
- The dates themselves follow the long-standing pattern (second Sunday of March → first Sunday of November) that’s been in place since 2007 under U.S. law. Wikipedia+1
- But 2025 arrives in a climate of stronger push-back: More states are discussing eliminating the switch, more people are asking “why do we still do this?” The fact that searches for “daylight savings 2025”, “time change 2025” and “fall back 2025” are high shows the topic still resonates.
- The June-to-November stretch means businesses that rely on evening daylight (tourism, outdoor events, restaurants) are still in “DST mode” longer than the old system pre-2007 allowed — which influences revenue, scheduling, even local mood.
What you should do (practical tip)
- Before Sunday night, March 8, 2025, make sure any manual clocks (wall clocks, ovens, etc.) are ready to jump ahead.
- Mark Sunday, November 2, 2025 as a reminder: set those clocks back before bed Saturday night so you wake up on the right time.
- If you coordinate internationally: check that your colleagues in other states/countries haven’t changed at different times — time zone math gets tricky when some places observe and some don’t.
- Consider your personal rhythm: if you find darker evenings harder, start adjusting bedtime in the week before the switch. Light exposure, sleep hygiene matter more than you might think.
How People Feel About Losing or Gaining an Hour
Every March and November, millions of people across the world experience the same thing — a single hour disappears or returns, and somehow it manages to throw life off balance.
Some shrug it off, saying “It’s just an hour.” But for others, that small shift feels like a full reset.
When the Clock Springs Forward
March’s “spring forward” has always been the unpopular one. We lose an hour of sleep, and somehow it takes days — sometimes weeks — for the body to catch up. Morning commutes suddenly happen in the dark again. Kids struggle to wake up for school. Even coffee feels less effective.
Sleep scientists call it a mini-jetlag. Your body’s circadian rhythm — the internal clock that tells you when to wake up, eat, and rest — doesn’t just obey your alarm. It obeys light. When the clock changes but the sun doesn’t, your body gets confused.
This leads to more than yawns. Studies have found higher rates of car accidents, workplace injuries, and even heart attacks in the week following the spring change. (AASM Health Advisory, 2020)
Yet not everyone hates it. Some people love the lighter evenings — longer walks, late sunsets, the feeling that summer is stretching its arms out early. It’s a reminder that light has an emotional pull.
When the Clock Falls Back
The November change, known as “fall back,” is more forgiving. We gain an extra hour of sleep, which everyone celebrates — at least for a day. But soon after, the early sunsets start to creep in. By 5 p.m., streets are dim.
That’s when another wave hits — seasonal mood drops. Psychologists have long linked the early darkness to Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), a kind of winter blues tied to reduced sunlight exposure. People find themselves sleeping earlier, feeling less motivated, and missing that spark of long summer evenings.
Losing an hour disrupts our sleep. Gaining it often disrupts our spirit.
Different Lives, Different Reactions
For parents, the change can be chaos — bedtime routines go out the window. For healthcare workers or shift employees, it’s one more obstacle in an already irregular schedule. For travelers or those working with international teams, it adds confusion: one week you’re on the same time as London, the next you’re not.
And for those who live near borders — say between Arizona (which doesn’t observe DST) and neighboring states — it’s simply baffling. One side of town is an hour ahead; the other isn’t. Businesses literally operate in split time zones.
The Emotional Divide
The reactions are deeply personal. For some, daylight saving is nostalgic — a sign that summer is near or winter is coming. For others, it’s a yearly nuisance that serves no purpose. Social media every March and November floods with memes like “Why are we still doing this?” — a digital sigh shared across millions of screens.
Ultimately, the time change reminds us that humans crave stability, yet we keep adjusting the clock — as if we could bargain with the sun.
How Time Change Affects International Business and Communication
The clock doesn’t just change your sleep — it can change the rhythm of entire economies. When one country shifts an hour ahead while another doesn’t, it’s more than a local inconvenience. It can ripple through global markets, meetings, flights, and even diplomacy.
The Hidden Cost of the Hour
Every March and November, traders, airlines, and corporations quietly brace for confusion. Take the New York Stock Exchange and the London Stock Exchange — normally five hours apart. For two weeks each spring and fall, that gap shrinks to four hours because the U.S. and the U.K. change clocks on different dates. During those days, trading overlaps shift, algorithms adjust, and analysts stay alert to avoid timing errors worth millions.
Similarly, airlines face a logistical puzzle. A single misalignment can ripple across hundreds of routes — leading to delayed flights or scheduling mismatches between connecting airports. Global companies like Microsoft or Amazon update their internal time systems automatically, but even then, meetings slip through the cracks when teams forget which office “changed” that week.
A Global Patchwork of Time
In theory, DST was supposed to make the world more efficient. In practice, it created a time zone patchwork.
The United States and Canada still follow DST. The European Union has been debating abolishing it since 2019 but has yet to agree on how to synchronize member states. Meanwhile, countries like India, China, and Japan never adopted DST at all — they keep one standard time year-round.
This means that twice a year, international coordination temporarily becomes chaos. A 9 a.m. call in New York might suddenly be 8 p.m. in Tokyo instead of 9 p.m. the week before. Calendar systems can adjust automatically, but human memory doesn’t — and for global teams, that means missed calls and awkward apologies.
The Human Side of Business Confusion
For entrepreneurs and freelancers who work with clients overseas, the change can feel personal. Meetings rescheduled. Emails mistimed. Sleep patterns disrupted — especially for those who balance work across continents.
It’s not just about business hours — it’s about body hours. When time changes in one country, someone else somewhere loses a piece of rhythm.
Time-sensitive industries feel it most:
- Finance and trading — where seconds matter
- Airlines and logistics — where timing defines profit margins
- Streaming and entertainment — where live broadcasts cross time zones
- Customer service and tech — where global support teams must sync across dozens of regions
Even diplomacy feels the pinch. In 2022, an EU delegate humorously called the biannual switch “the only thing we all agree we hate but can’t agree how to stop.”
When the World Can’t Agree on Time
What’s interesting — almost ironic — is that this disagreement over time reflects something deeper about modern life. Despite globalization, countries still view time as a sovereign choice. For some, DST represents adaptability; for others, it symbolizes unnecessary complexity.
The global economy runs on shared systems — but not shared time. And until that changes, businesses will keep living in two worlds, twice a year.
What If We Stopped Changing the Clock?
It’s the question that keeps circling back every year:
“Why don’t we just stop changing the clock?”
The idea sounds simple — but ending Daylight Saving Time (DST) is more complicated than it looks. To stop the clock from jumping forward or backward, we’d have to choose: permanent daylight time or permanent standard time. And that choice divides people as much as the time change itself.
The Two Camps
Team Daylight Time argues for lighter evenings year-round. They say brighter afternoons boost business, outdoor activity, and mental health. Kids could play after school. Restaurants, sports, and tourism would thrive under longer light.
Team Standard Time pushes for darker evenings but brighter mornings — better for sleep and body rhythm. Sleep experts almost unanimously support this version, saying that our biology aligns naturally with sunrise, not sunset. (American Academy of Sleep Medicine Position Statement, 2020)
Both sides have valid points. But any permanent decision would make life different, depending on where you live. In northern states, permanent daylight time could mean sunrise at nearly 9 a.m. in winter. In the south, it might not matter much at all.
What the Data Suggests
In 2022, the U.S. Senate briefly passed the Sunshine Protection Act, a bill proposing permanent daylight time. It sparked public excitement — and confusion. People liked the idea of never “falling back,” but experts raised concerns: later sunrises could make mornings darker for children, increase traffic accidents, and disrupt sleep patterns. The bill stalled in the House, partly because lawmakers wanted more study before shifting the nation’s clock for good. (Congressional Research Service Report, 2023)
In Europe, the EU Parliament voted in 2019 to end the seasonal time change, leaving each country to pick one system. Yet years later, implementation remains frozen. No one wants to be out of sync with their neighbors.
It’s a small reminder that time isn’t just science — it’s coordination. Even one country’s decision ripples into trade, travel, and tech systems across borders.
The Personal Impact of Stopping
If DST ended tomorrow, here’s what would likely happen:
- The first year would feel smoother — no abrupt sleep loss or clock confusion.
- Energy savings would remain roughly neutral, according to multiple studies.
- Business operations would stabilize, especially for international scheduling.
- But mornings could feel darker for months in some regions — a shock to those used to early sunlight.
Still, many people say it’s worth it. Surveys from YouGov, Gallup, and Pew all show that over 60% of Americans want one fixed time all year. It’s less about science now — more about sanity.
People are tired of chasing the clock. They just want time to make sense again.
Beyond the Hour — What It Really Means
Stopping DST wouldn’t just change the clock; it would mark the end of a 100-year experiment in human control over daylight. It would mean admitting that not everything can — or should — be optimized. We can control electricity, traffic, and commerce, but the sun will rise when it wants to.
Maybe that’s the quiet truth behind all the noise: Ending Daylight Saving isn’t just about time. It’s about accepting nature’s rhythm again.
The Cultural Side of Time — How Daylight Saving Shapes People’s Perception of Time and Control
Time is universal, yet every culture treats it differently. Daylight Saving Time (DST) isn’t just about the hour we change — it’s about the illusion that we control time.
Time as a Cultural Mirror
When Germany first adjusted its clocks in 1916, it was a wartime tactic. When America adopted it, it became a symbol of innovation. And when countries debate it today, it reflects something deeper — how each society measures productivity, rest, and balance.
In cultures where efficiency is worshipped, DST feels logical — an extra hour of light means an extra hour of output. But in cultures that value harmony with nature — like parts of Asia or the Pacific — the idea of “saving daylight” seems unnecessary, even arrogant. The sun gives what it gives; humans adapt.
The yearly clock change has become, in a way, a ritual of modern life — a moment when people collectively question how artificial their routines have become.
The Psychological Layer
There’s an irony: we created DST to master time, but it often leaves us feeling less in control. When we “lose” or “gain” an hour, it’s a reminder that time isn’t truly ours. People describe feeling disoriented, rushed, or oddly melancholic during the switch — not because of the hour itself, but because it exposes how fragile our balance with time is.
Psychologists say that these transitions trigger subtle forms of temporal anxiety — the sense that time is slipping, that we’re racing against something invisible. That’s why many report a mental “fog” after the change. It’s not just sleep; it’s symbolism.
A Shared Global Moment
Twice a year, billions of people adjust their clocks — it’s one of the few truly global collective acts left. And yet, it’s not done together. Each region moves at its own date, its own pace, its own reason. That inconsistency itself reveals how fragmented our sense of global time has become.
We live in a world that’s synchronized by technology but divided by time zones — and daylight saving only amplifies that paradox.
Social media captures this sentiment perfectly. Every March and November, feeds fill with the same jokes, complaints, and nostalgic sighs — proof that DST isn’t just a technical issue; it’s an emotional event. People bond over being tired, laugh about confusion, and share memes that say, “I can’t believe we’re still doing this.”
The Illusion of Control
If anything, DST reveals how obsessed we are with managing time — as if shifting the clock an hour forward could bend nature to our will. But the sun doesn’t notice. It rises and sets exactly as it did yesterday.
Maybe that’s what makes the debate so enduring — it’s not really about energy or convenience. It’s about humanity’s ongoing struggle to balance control vs. acceptance.
We want more daylight, more time, more productivity. Yet deep down, we also crave peace — a rhythm that feels natural again. Ending or keeping DST won’t solve that contradiction. But it does force us to ask the timeless question:
Are we managing time, or is time managing us?
Key Takeaways — What the Future of Daylight Saving Time Might Look Like
After more than a century of moving the hands of the clock, the world stands at a quiet crossroads. Daylight Saving Time began as a wartime experiment — a clever way to stretch daylight and save energy. Now, it has become a mirror of modern life: complex, globalized, and divided between convenience and common sense.
What We Know
- The science is clear: Human bodies prefer natural light in the morning. Permanent standard time supports healthier sleep, steadier mood, and fewer accidents. (American Academy of Sleep Medicine, 2020)
- The data is clear: The original purpose — saving fuel — no longer applies. Modern lighting and energy systems erased most of the economic benefits.
- The people are clear: Polls from YouGov, Pew, and Gallup show that nearly two-thirds of Americans want to stop the clock changes altogether. The same sentiment is growing across Europe and Canada.
- The law is not clear: In the U.S., states can choose standard time but not permanent daylight time without federal approval. The Sunshine Protection Act remains stalled in Congress, with debate ongoing about which system to make permanent. (CRS Report on DST 2023)
What the Future Might Hold
If current trends continue, the world could split into two timing philosophies:
- Regions that return to natural rhythm — keeping standard time all year and aligning with sunrise and sleep science.
- Regions that chase the light — adopting permanent daylight time for economic or lifestyle reasons.
Technology will soften the chaos — calendars, clocks, and digital platforms already adjust automatically — but the deeper question remains cultural.
The future of daylight saving isn’t about the hour we lose or gain. It’s about whether society still believes that time is something we can engineer.
Why It Matters
Ending the clock changes might feel small, but it touches everything — our health, our work, our economy, our perception of control. It forces us to rethink a century-old assumption: that time should bend to human needs. Maybe the next evolution isn’t another adjustment, but a return to simplicity, one rhythm, all year, in tune with nature.
For now, the debate continues. Somewhere, policymakers weigh data. Somewhere else, a parent resets the kitchen clock. And the sun indifferent as ever, keeps rising and setting exactly on time.
FAQs
When does Daylight Saving Time start and end in 2025?
In the U.S., Daylight Saving Time (DST) starts on Sunday, March 9, 2025, when clocks move forward one hour at 2:00 a.m. local time. It ends on Sunday, November 2, 2025, when clocks fall back one hour at 2:00 a.m. local time. This schedule has remained the same since 2007 under the Energy Policy Act of 2005. (timeanddate.com)
Which U.S. states are getting rid of Daylight Saving Time?
As of 2025, no U.S. state has completely eliminated DST, but many are trying. Over 30 states have introduced bills to stop the biannual clock change. Hawaii and most of Arizona already stay on standard time all year — meaning they don’t “spring forward” or “fall back.”
Other states like Florida, Washington, and California have voted to make DST permanent but need federal approval before implementing it. (NCSL – Daylight Saving Legislation Tracker, 2025)
Why do we still have Daylight Saving Time?
Originally, DST was introduced during World War I and World War II to save fuel and maximize daylight hours for productivity. Today, the energy savings are negligible but tradition and political inertia have kept it alive. It remains partly due to business preferences (like tourism and retail) and federal law, which hasn’t yet been updated to reflect modern life. (History.com – DST Origins)
Is Daylight Saving Time still necessary in 2025?
From a practical and scientific standpoint, not really. Modern lighting and energy systems have erased its original benefits, while health experts warn of its negative effects on sleep and safety. Still, supporters argue it encourages outdoor activity and supports evening commerce.
In short, its value now depends on perception — whether you see daylight as time to live or time to rest. (American Academy of Sleep Medicine – Health Advisory)
What happens if the U.S. ends Daylight Saving Time?
If Congress approved ending DST, the country would have to choose:
- Permanent Standard Time — healthier for sleep and closer to natural sunlight cycles.
- Permanent Daylight Time — lighter evenings, darker mornings, more business hours.
Either choice would reshape daily life depending on latitude. The change would also ripple into aviation, broadcasting, and international trade schedules. (CRS – Sunshine Protection Act Report, 2023)
How does the time change affect people?
Short answer: more than most realize. The “spring forward” disrupts sleep, concentration, and mood. The “fall back” often triggers earlier darkness and seasonal fatigue. It’s a reminder that the human body follows sunlight — not the second hand on a clock. (Harvard Health – Emotional Impact of DST)
Do other countries observe Daylight Saving Time?
Yes, but fewer each decade. Parts of Europe, North America, and Australia still use DST. However, most of Asia, Africa, and South America have abandoned it. The European Union voted in 2019 to end seasonal clock changes, though implementation has stalled as countries decide which time to keep. (BBC News – EU DST Debate)
Will Daylight Saving Time ever end?
Probably — but not overnight. Public opinion is pushing hard, and legislation is slowly catching up. It might take a few more years of debate and adjustment before DST finally becomes history. When it does, it won’t just mark the end of a policy — it’ll mark the moment humanity stopped trying to “save” daylight and started syncing again with it.
Author’s Reflection: Why We Still Chase the Sun
Time isn’t just numbers; it’s the rhythm of how we live.
Every “spring forward” and “fall back” reminds us that we’re still trying to outsmart nature, as if daylight were a currency we could save. But the truth is, daylight was never ours to control; we only borrowed it for comfort.
Daylight Saving Time began with noble intentions to save energy, to help workers, and to make the world move in sync. But today, it feels like a symbol of our modern paradox: we live in a world connected by the internet, yet divided by the clock.
For millions, this annual clock shift is more than just a sleep disruption, it’s a small but constant reminder of how fragile our routines are. A single hour can affect our mood, our work, and even our global trade meetings.
Time zones were meant to organize us. Ironically, they now expose how differently we all experience the same sunrise.
As countries debate whether to keep or kill Daylight Saving Time, it’s not just about efficiency; it’s about identity.
Should we live by natural light, or by corporate schedules?
Should we measure time by productivity, or by peace of mind?
The debate isn’t really about clocks. It’s about us, a species still learning that progress doesn’t always mean control.
Maybe one day, we’ll stop moving the clock hands back and forth.
And maybe then, we’ll realize that what we’ve been trying to save all along… wasn’t daylight, it was balance.
