Question to ponder: What made hours pass like minutes for you as a child?

Actually I thought it was the other way around. When I was a child, minutes felt like hours.

Now that I'm older it feels like time is passing fast

Interesting, thanks for sharing!

What changed for you? Why do you think time is passing faster?


There's biology involved too...as you get older, your eyes process images differently.

But also as an adult, you tend to not be present, not focus on little things like butterflies, and how sunlight looks in the spring on a green grass.

The result is the you feel hurried and that time is flying by

Beautiful. I agree. I also think it's because children don't really have much of an conditioned ego. No strong preferences, affiliations, or judgements.

They are beings of love.

Do you think adults could be that way too?


yea... it's something everyone should aspire to. Peeps wouldn't be thinking about WW3 if everyone was like that
