Do you find that time goes faster as you get older?

I feel this so much, the weeks just fly by. It does seem to be a perception of age the only thime this happened when I was young was when I was really enjoying some activity. Does this mean I am rally enjoying life now?

Yes, but I didn't think it is me. People had more time, and I really can't explain it other than the days are getting shorter, it isn't because of my age, but the age of the earth..

Hi Pose Yes I do and I was only thinking that yesterday myself that it is already the middle of 2010 I just can not believe how fast the time is going

Maybe because when we get older we want the clock to stop and time goes faster than ever.

I'm 22 years old, and it does seem that time does seem to pass by more quickly that it seem to 5 or even ten years ago. I'm really not sure why though. It almost feels like yesterday I was in high school or something.

whoa..i'm 17 while you are 70..hai gran!!hehe..just kidd..time do fly but mostly i think when we have fun..my grandparents sort of at your age..they have plenty of tme everyday cuz they don't really into internet..they don't even know how to use it..they prefer to watch tv or listening to evergreen songs...

Hello Pose. I am only 23 but I feel that time runs soooo fast especially when I started working. No matter what I do, whether I enjoy what I do or not, I keep finding time flying so fast I can't even run after it. I didn't realize that I'm no longer a teenage yet sometimes, I still feel so young. I started thinking about my priorities in life and my time frames. I started to think of my own savings account, my own investments and my stability by the time I hit 40. You may say that I'm a paranoid but lately, I started thinking of my future even of my pension or retirement plan. LOL. Probably I just want everything to be set and well-planned.

I'm already 27 years old and I felt like I'm already entering 50 years old. Yes time does flew fast and quick. It seems day and night collaborated to make me aged fast with out my consent. Soon another year will come and I feel like I have not accomplished yet with my present age. My life is like a stagnant lake and deserted as well. I admired those who are in their rife old age and yet they lived a meaningful and fruitful life. I admired those were able to live with their dreams and accomplish all their goals and ambitions in life. Me...i still have to make the first step. So help me God.

When one is young, everything is running at 100 percent. As one gets old, the body can't sustain 100 percent so it starts deleting things. It's a little like a tv picture. The more dots:the better the picture. Fewer dots means you can still get the picture but not as clearly. In conclusion, time is going at the same rate as always, however,as we get older. our perception of time decreases because we lost some dots. Time seems to go by faster. Kinda makes one wonder what else we are missing along the way.

Yes i fully agree with you. As we grow up the span of an year time get decreased really. We talk about some years in general way. Think the time span of 10 years today when you are enough old. And think again the same time as when you were a child of 12 years. I think you will get the meaning.

Hi POse: I'm young. I'm just 22 years old but I have noticed this. For me times goes faster than it used to pass when I was just a litle kid. And I think this happend because when I was a kid a year was a very long period of time, at this moment of everyone life you grow, you meet people, you are studying in your school. So many things have to happend so you think that time goes slowly, but it's not like that. This depends on the perspective of the viewer I think. Thanks for asking us this question. Have a nice day. ALVARO.

This is an interesting question and thank you for bringing it up. Yes, I do think time seems to fly by more quickly the older we become. I'm "only" 44 but each decade I live definitely goes quicker than the previous ones. I don't know why that is. Perhaps it's due to me being in a rut and nothing constructive is going on but when I had loads going on in my late teens and early twenties, the time stood still, it just went on and on. And before I know it I'm in my 40s. It's frightening to say the least! Mum says it's worse for her and she's coming up to her 64th birthday!

There will be some that may argue this one, but i swear my bills come on a weekly basis. The companies always says no, that they send out monthly statements, but i beg the differ. So yes, life is just flies by!

im only 22 yrs old..but I want to share something here also.. my grandma is already 87, and feel the same way too as your's... I think it's just normal for an old lady like you my dear..

Hello Pose, Nice to note time goes faster for you with aging. That shows how busy you are even at this age. Same thing happens here for me too. I find time moves so faster every day. I keep myself very busy without wasting the precious time. Internet is also helping me to keep myself busy usefully. I learn so many things online every day. I hope this trend would continue till my end.

Eh It still seems rather slow to me especially when I'm excitedly waiting for an important day. If I keep myself extra busy though then sometimes the time and days will go faster.

I am in my late twenties. I never felt time is going so fast till now. Everyday I am busy with my work and home related responsibities. Days go quick for me now because of that. I think what you are talking is right. My grand parents used to say this when they retired. They had nothing to do and they spend their day waiting for the grand children to reach home after school.

I'm only 53 and have been saying this for years. I remember as a child waiting and waiting for Christmas to come and it would take forever to get here. As an adult for many years now I feel like it comes so fast like everything else. I can't believe we are living in the year 2010. Its just crazy and I wish I knew why we feel this way. Maybe its because has a child we had no concept of time not until we are grown.

70?well, almost as old as my mom, then.My mom will be 67 this year. Yeah, time passes by so quickly. Just remember when my nephew was born, I played with him, sometimes bathed him and so on.Now he`s 11 years old, can play drums,guitar, skateboard and he know almost all of Facebook games!!!

Hi there! I tell you what. The days are flying by so fast now sence I graduated high school in 1999. Now I am 29 and at the end of 2010 I'll be 30 years old. Yes time is kicking in hard. Somtimes I wake up and can still remeber things like it was yesterday. And think to myself, omg! where has time gone. If there is a cure for getting old I would have to think about it before taking it.
