Hello, dear reader!

Since you started reading this text, then I can assume that something made you interested in it. Perhaps its title, or perhaps your curiosity, motives and intentions pushed you to find out how it will end.

I must warn you that it may be something that will allow you to have a little fun, but on the other hand, it can also be considered as exercise. It’s up to you.

We may know each other, or maybe we have never heard of each other. This is generally not important.

While you are reading these words, I am no longer where I was at the time they were written. At least, just like you, no longer in the time in which I wrote this text. Which means, for you, I wrote it sometime in the past.

A second, a minute, a day or even more has passed since this text was already written and published. And you and I know that usually the text is read silently. About myself. As if in the voice of an imaginary author. Or just your inner one.

At least that’s what happens for me. I always read as if in someone else’s voice. Even if it is only imaginary, not audible with the ears, but it seems to allow for dialogue, especially in such type of texts as this one.

Of course, you don’t really hear my voice now. Yes, in general, the voice, the fact that you are reading these words to yourself, has nothing to do with it.

Rather, we are talking about the time from which this very voice speaks.
