I read a theory about how life seems faster as we get older.
For instance;
1 year at 1 year old is 100% of your life on the planet.
1 year at 10 years old is 10% of your life on the planet.
1 year at 20 years old is 5% of your life on the planet.
1 year at 50 years old is 2% of your life on the planet.
As you get older your brain perceives time differently based on the time we've spent on the planet if that makes sense, as our measurements of time change. I find it interesting but not sure if I truly believe it.
I agree with Jay, and it's sad in a way. We look forward to events and due to that we mostly sit wishing our lives away. Waiting for that potential special moment. But the moments don't come that often and we really need to learn to appreciate everyday individually.
