Who the heck wants to be 90 years old, with time barely moving? Or, 7 years old with time zipping by? Would there even be such thing as "time" if we lived forever?Monderegal » 28 Jun 2022, 10:09 am » wrote: ↑ Just something off topic from politics I just want to offer an observation. Is it just me or does time move faster in our connected world? I'm forty now but it always seemed that time moved a lot slower when I was a child. We used to drive to the beach as a family in the summer and the seven hour trip seemed to take an eternity. As I get older, the trip that long seems to be a lot faster in my perception. Therefore, I have come to the belief that time seems to move faster as I get older. Is it because my brain is fuller with the knowledge of the world?
I also think that technology might also play a role in my perception of time. It seems that with more distractions, time is moving faster because I never seem to slow down. Perhaps the adage "time flies when you are having fun" is part of the reason for the faster clock in my mind. I seem to always be on the move and perhaps that contributes to my perception that time is moving faster. Any insights?
