0:00.0 | Have you ever looked at an old photograph of yourself and thought, |
0:05.0 | Oh my word, I've really changed. |
0:10.0 | It's a curious thing, right? Change. |
0:13.0 | We see it in our faces, our lives, and how quickly kids grow or cities grow one skyscraper at a time. |
0:23.3 | But what about the change that happens when we can't see it? |
