Just. Pause.
Are you ever watching a movie, or reading a book, and find that you just… have to… pause?

Are you ever watching a TV show or a movie, or reading a book, and just…
…have to…
…pause…?
Not because someone’s trying to talk to you, or you have to do something else.
No interruptions.
Just you. Pausing.
Just because… because you need to pause?
I do it a lot.
I’ll be reading or watching something, and I… just have to stop.
Like — halt! Peidiwch! Stopio! Give me a minute here, cos this is a lot! 😅
Like I need a minute or two… or even just a few seconds… to — process? I guess?
To think about what I’m seeing or reading or feeling.
