Though there is this saying that time is relative and the older I get, the faster time seems to move. A week feels like a couple of days, and before I realize it, another month has passed.
It makes me wonder whether we're actually busier or just less present.

Do you also feel like time moves faster now than it did when you were younger? Why do you think that happens?

Thank you

What I can say is that when we were younger, we have less focus and we're not concerned about most things but dependent on parents unlike now that we have so many responsibilities to shoulder

True! But then, what I can say is we are less aware about time, we see it as nothing unlike now that we know better and we want to make everyone minute count

Exactly.... We didn't know the value of time then and felt like it was moving like snail

Exactly, and I'm glad that we now know the importance of that and its value

That's the difference from childhood and adulthood

Those times when we were small sef, we wanted the time to be faster so we can become adults but now we are adults and we want the time moving slower

That was probably because we don't have much to do unlike now that we must accomplish the tasks ahead of us, that is why we want time to be slow sometimes but it waits for no one

What else do we need to do then than to wake up, bath, eat, play games, eat, and sleep.
Our parents will stylishly hint us then but we still didn't realize it until now lol

Good old days 😅😅😅
Someone should take me back to that time. Now when I see children playing around, I'll just smile

You smile when you see the same cycle working again. When they get to your stage, they also wish for same impossible thing you're wishing for rn 😄

I looked at the time some minutes ago and literally shouted, "it's 12pm already" and it felt so much like what I've been saying for the past months. Time run so fast and it's not even something you won't notice.

You know that is probably you were up to something or busy with something because the faster we tend to go, the faster time becomes most like, what I've noticed though, it might not be for everyone. But relatively to me also, the past month looks so fast

Every month since this year have been so fast for me but yeah, I get what you mean and I think I can relate to that too.

Funny how some said it's slow for them...just now now, we are in August 6 when I was wishing some people happy new year not long ago...lol 😂
Glad you can relate

Lol it's really funny, that goes to say how different life can be for each person.

Yes ooo. We all have different perspectives to and how we see this life of a thing. What is facing A is backing B.

Exactly! That's just life.

Yes ooo
Such a beautiful life

In a blink of an eye now, you will be hearing "jingle bell jingle bell"
Realization will dawn fully by then

Not really like the time is faster than before but because we are now occupied with tasks way more than we used to be

That makes a lot of sense.

Moreover the time is still that old time

Actually! 🥲

Maybe it has a lot to do with the fact that I am an adult with a lot of things I have in mind to do but yeah, the time does moves faster now than it did when I was younger.
And I think it's because I have a lot on my plate to do now than I did before.

Absolutely! You are right! An occupied mind is one of the factors; likewise, being an adult is also part of it. But do you think the time is always fast on your end, or are there some days that just feel so, so slow?

The slow days are very few. And it's when I actually set time for everything I want to do in a day, those days can be so slow. 😅

But when I want to lazy about and just do whatever anytime, it runs so fast.

Some days can also be like that too and it depends on the type of things the you set time for cos some can be time consuming while other, you get it done in no time.

Lazy😂😂the time is casually telling you that catch me when you can

True, that's a factor that made it seem so slow for me, the tasks that took longer time to finish.
Omo! It should slow down o, I still have a lot to do in my life. 😂

Unfortunately, it can slow down..we just have to keep up with it.... it wait for no one sadly. But hope you have some of the plans figured out to keep up with it?

I think I do, just not keeping up with time yet.

So far you know and you are doing it little by little, that something 💯

It can't slow down o 😅 but yes we have to keep up with it. We can't beat it so we have to join it

Now you hit the point of the cause with the last sentence. It's not like the seconds ticked faster or the minutes and hour went beyond their normal pace but the older we get longing for success, the more our activities become which makes time faster to us

It goes fast cuz we are spending time on useless things as in watching reels which has nothing to do with us. We can watch something for entertainment for a while but for hours, it seems crazy.

That is right, doomscrolling like that consumes a lot of time without us knowing
