Does anyone out there feel that time is slipping away? It's like time is going on full speed. This week went by extrememly fast and I'm wondering where did it go? Next thing you know it's going to be summer yet again and then winter. It's crazy how time goes by so fast and you sometime feel like you don't have enough time to do everything that you are supposed to do.
That's how i've been feeling lately. Especially with work and school and working on my writing. Yesterday I was working on my manuscript and it was 12:00 then when I stopped I checked the time and it was 4:00! And it didn't even feel that I took that long on my manuscript.
Does any else feel that time is slipping away? Is anyone having trouble doing things that they have to do in a day?

Time is slipping away. I feel it. I moved out of my parents house a year in a half ago. and it feels like it was just yesterday. Every time I go home I feel like I still live there and belong there. I also turn 20 next month. Two decades of my life have gone by. And I don't really have anything to show for it. I really miss being a kid. Those were the best days, and I didn't realize it at the time. I wish I could go back to then and relive those days of freedom again.

Wow. Well I'm 21 and I can't wait until I move out so I can experience what it is like to live by myself and have to do everything myself. I'm very independent so I don't think it should be that hard. I will miss my family but I can't wait! I also miss being a kid. My best time was during high school and if I could I would go back in time to spend at least a week during high school again. That would be fun.

I'm in my 50s and time is definitely slipping by quickly. The older you get and the more you need to do, the faster it goes!

I'm beginning to notice that as well. The older you get the more responsibilities that you have. I'm only 20 but boy do I have a lot of stuff to do!

hi ayumitakashi I think the older we get the faster time seems
to just gallop by but if you are waiting for something it almost stops and goes into slow motion, I do a lot of mylotting, but wish I had a writing site to do some writing and get paid for
it too like we do here in mylot.

Yeah I agree with you the older we get the faster time seems to pass us by and miss us.

I know exactly what you mean. January left way too quickly. We always have a list of something to do and unfortunately we don't have the time to do everything on that list. I guess that's just how life is.
