# The Hour We Mark

## A Single Turn of the Glass

An hour slips through our days like sand in a quiet glass—sixty minutes, neither too vast nor too fleeting. On this winter evening in 2025, with frost tracing the window, I sit and consider it. Not the rush of hours stacked into weeks, but this one: contained, complete. It holds space for a walk, a conversation, or simply breathing with intention. We often chase the horizon of tomorrow, forgetting the grain falling now.

## Etched in Simple Lines

Markdown, that unadorned way of writing, mirrors the hour's plain power. No flourish, just clear lines forming meaning. Imagine your hour as a fresh .md file: headings for what matters, lists for small steps, plain text for thoughts unadorned. Last night, I filled one with notes from a shared meal—laughter over soup, a friend's quiet worry shared. It captured the warmth without excess, turning time into something I can revisit, edit, carry forward.

## Renewing the Page

What if we treated each hour this way?
- Pause to name its quiet gifts.
- Jot one truth it reveals.
- Let it end, then begin anew.

In doing so, life becomes not an endless scroll, but pages we author, one hour at a time.

*Hold this hour gently; it writes you as much as you write it.*
