📖 The answer, explained

The trick here is that tomorrow is a word that resets itself the moment you try to catch it. Every single day, when you wake up, tomorrow has technically become today, and a brand new tomorrow slides into place right behind it, forever one step out of reach. It's a promise that keeps its own distance on purpose. Your mind wants to treat it like a destination, something you could theoretically walk into if you just waited long enough, but the definition itself won't allow it. The moment it would arrive is the exact moment it stops being tomorrow at all. That little built-in dodge, the way language lets something be permanently almost-here, is what makes the riddle so satisfying once it clicks.
