People today desire everything at quick pace while putting aside or diminishing the real joys which are slow. They are bound to be slow. People inherently know that these habits are incoherent and wants to break this cycle. But somehow they are not able to break this vicious cycle.

So, recently there was a thief named Mohseen in our colony who broke this cycle. He literally stole a bicycle. I'm pretty sure that for a few days before he was caught, completely oblivious to the fact that everyone else was trying to get ahead at 1.5x speed, he was just peddling along happily somewhere in nature at 1.0x
