The Moment I Realized I Was on Autopilot
Perspective by HPJ — Week 1, Awareness — Feminine Perspective
I answered every question directed at me that day. Nodded in the right places, laughed where laughter was expected, signed my name where a signature was required.
By evening, sitting at the edge of the bed, I could not recall a single decision I had actually made — only ones I had performed.
I had been capable all day. Reliable. Present enough that no one around me noticed anything was missing.
Except I was missing. I had been running someone who looked exactly like me, and she was very good at her job.
I sat there in the quiet, hands still, and asked myself, for what felt like the first time in longer than I could name…
Who wrote this script, and do I even want the part?
