Do You Think Time Goes By Faster As We Get Older?

Well- I would think so- but I know it doesn't- It is that we have so many things going on and it actually just feels like it is flying by- but in actuality it's the same 24 hours each day- I think when we get alot older and our kids have moved out and things start to slow down- time goes slow- I have talked to numerous older people and they say that time drags on- so it has to be a busy thing!

I believe the "feeling" of time going by faster increases as I age. Not afraid of dying at all. I think whatever is important to me will be done before I leave this world. I think as my kids have gotten older time has seemed to past quicker. When they were little, seemed to have time for anything as as they got older and involved in more through school and then work, time seems to speed up, though I know it really doesn't !!!! Maybe because I have time to persue things that I am interested in, changes my perspective!!

I am 32 and time seems to go really fast.I mean seem like it was just yesterday when i turned 21.I have 3 kids and my oldest will be 13 in a couple of months.Seem like it was yesterday when she was 5 going to kindergarden.Time really does fly.I was just talking about this with my friend yesterday.The millineum years are on the roll.:)

I think the days seem to go faster because lives are busier now. We probably need to step back and "smell the roses" more and days will seem longer.

I think it has to do how long a task takes us how time is perceived. Old people often do reoccurring things this means that one does it in no time. When they walk they walk slow and can not run. It uses up time. When I was a preschool kid it took me so and so long to get somewhere. Long walks. Then I left town and came back 40 years later and the distances were so short that I walked now with my long legs, I walked there in a hurry. This is how the differences come how we perceive time at different ages. Time also flies as often old people do not remember a whole day. They forget half of what happens in a day, as if the day has this way only 12 hours for them.
