After Age 50, the Years began accelerating fairly rapidly.
After Age 60, A year seemed like a Month - and Nostalgia increased exponentially, too.

IMO once married with kids and working, the days weeks and months seem to pass much faster than ever before probably due to so much less down time.


This. I got married and inherited kids at 28, also started a real job working 50/60 hours a week. Ever since that, time has flown. Im 32 now and every year comes by faster. Kids and working long hours will do that.

I turned 37 yesterday. I'm still completely incapable of wrapping my head around the fact that I've been out of high school longer than I actually went to school. Seems impossible.

Days get longer. Years get shorter.

After kids. I think it's been said already but that's the right answer.

The year before I died seemed to fly by. Now, they are going a little slower.

When you have kids it starts flying by.
And then when your kids start school is when you really start to feel the time going in fast forward.
I was dropping my little girl off in kindergarten when 9/11 happened and now she is graduating next week. WTF!!

I agree.. But no one is forced to work that much. People like to work to buy a bigger house or cooler stuff. Doesn't sound too great.

Routine makes time go fast in my opinion. Same route to work, same lunch, same meeting, same, same, same and then it's already Wednesday.

Time seems to go by exponentially faster every day.

Wife was talking about trying to have another and I told her she just needed a little patience because she'd have grandkids in no time.

all I know is, I just turned 30 a couple weeks ago and it had me reflecting pretty heavy. 21-30 went by like the snap of my fingers.

I've heard it just gets worse from here...



You heard right. Just wait another 10-15 years. Then it gets really fast. Next thing you know you'll be 50, then you're checking the obits each morning to see if anyone in there is someone you know.
Then you'll turn 60, and if you are lucky enough you'll have a dad that is nearing 90, and you look at your dad and think to yourself "man only 30 years separate us, and in 30 years I'll be like dad. Then you'll think back 30 years just to gauge how long that will take. Then you'll be a little sick realizing that those 30 years seem like only 10. Enjoy your upcoming years youngster.

My grandfather turned 90 a couple months ago and he said those 90 years went by really fast.

I remember wanting to leave high school so bad. As of tomorrow I'm a senior at LSU.
