Is Time Going Faster????


Recommended Posts

Can't believe it's February already, it seems a fortnight ago we were building upto Christmas then bam, February. Before we know it, the clocks will be going forward and the trees into bloom. It doesn't seem that long ago they were green, what we talking, November? It's definitely true what they say about time going quicker when you get older. Someone once said, life's like a toilet roll, closer to the end you get, the quicker it runs out, so true.

It's not that time goes quicker, it's that your brain goes slower :)

Do you think Ray? I think it's more to do with how hectic your life is. When your young, not much to do but enjoy your summer holidays, your thoughts were your own..... The holidays lasted forever. See now, even out ferreting, it's sometimes hard to switch off. 6 weeks goes past in a blink of an eye.

Yep it feels like it's flying by, was looking through some old photos yesterday.

I found out at the weekend, an old friend I hadn't seen for a few years had past away. It makes you stop and take note. You think back to the good times you had with them like it was yesterday, then realize you haven't seen them in 12 years. Wtf did the time go? I hate looking at old photos mate.

Think you the nail on the head there.

 

I struggle to understand why I've been racing through life trying to get more work to earn more money to waste on pointless stuff, it's not like there is a grand prize at the finishing line.

Reminded me of this, Nick:

 

The Dalai Lama, when asked what surprised him most about humanity, he said:

 

“Man.

 

Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money.

Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health.

 

And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present;

the result being that he does not live in the present or the future;

he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived.”

Exactly mate. But you'd think time would slow down again when you retired. I'm pretty sure bird is retired and he reckons it's still going fast. Obviously time has never changed since we were kids, so we must be doing something wrong :hmm:

Thought the same this weekend Baw, where did January go Ffs... Seasons fast coming to an end, the fishing will begin soon though so not all bad..

The problem I have is I'm always programming in work weeks or months in advance, looking forward constantly really and perhaps the present does pass me by??

The scariest thing by far is the kids though, not babies anymore.. And they all no more now than either me or they're mum lol
