Dor lived in an era where communication relied on face-to-face interactions, long before the existence of written language. This simpler time allowed for more direct connections, but it contrasted sharply with the fast-paced, technology-driven world that came after. In this modern age, people are constantly distracted by their phones and computers, racing through their tasks while seeking out information and connection through screens.

Despite the immense capabilities that technology provides, individuals remain in a state of unrest. They frequently check their devices for the time, illustrating a frantic need to manage their busy schedules, which Dor had once tried to measure using basic tools from nature. This reflects a deeper commentary on how progress and advancement, while offering convenience, often take away the peace and simplicity of the past.
