Is anyone else noticing that time is going by faster? Weird phenomenon

Time began to speed up during the 1980's.

I wish I could take you to 1976 and show you how it is different now.

I think God is doing it.

Could be tied together.. but I think this verse actually means that God returns before all are dead.

New International Version
"If those days had not been cut short, no one would survive, but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened.

I was born in the 90s,

However I have noticed a very marked shift in the rate of time very recently.

How do you measure how fast time is going?

Well, in the 70's, the days were slow and lazy. It just wasn't like it is now.

it means you are getting old soon enough you will be old as hell enjoy it all

Busyness factor.

When the business of life is too important.

See, in the 70's, people had smaller homes and this upwardly mobile stuff wasn't part of the culture.

But, in the 80's, people started running after money. And when I say people, I mean Baby Boomers. They were going gung ho for a better life at any cost. They really sold us down the corporate road.

They became so busy that they never had time to enjoy all the nice things they could afford.

It has just sped up and sped up and sped up since then.

You have to keep in mind that in the 70's there were millionaires, but there were no billionaires. That didn't exist them.

Yeah dude, it means you are getting old. Wait until you are 64.

I guess then all you have to do is play any media like VHS tape with time code to see that one hour is one hour. Unfortunately this seems to happen with age but is just normal and something to do with familiarity. You can also stay alone a few weeks and not move around much and have nothing to do but watch a clock to see that time will go slow.

Seems go faster every year.

I get it now.

An unpleasant side effect of ageing. The 5 years between 15 and 20 roll lazily along. The 5 years between 45 and 50 fly by like a fucking express train.

You old people are acting like there's actually a scientific reason for why time gets faster as you get older lmao... Clearly your perception of time is 100% UP TO YOU. With proper meditation you can slow your perception to the point where a minute can feel like an hour, and it doesn't matter what age you are...

Of course there are also other factors, such as the condition of the planet and other forces.

OK, but is it not possible that *every* generation has always perceived this? There's really no objective measurement for one person's "it feels like time has sped up" compared with someone else's.

Plus, not to get overly abstract, each of us is sort of a particle in motion, all at varying speeds & trajectories, and thus experiencing things differently.

Lol I'm 18 and I think time is going by fast too, it has nothing to with your age...

John D Rockefeller was a billionaire in 1916

When you are exactly 1 year old, 1 year is the total amount of time you have ever known. It's massive.

When you are four, a year is now 1/4 of what you know.

When you are 10 it's 1/10.

When you are 50 it's 1/50.

See how the fraction gets smaller?

Time will consistently appear to speed up the older you get because one year will be a smaller and smaller amount compared to your overall life.

A year will only be 1/50th of your life when you are 50. Its going to go by much quicker than when it was 1/10th of your life.

There are scientific reasons how we perceive time AND that is not how this thread was started. Look like it has been proven that times is not REALLY going faster as you stated in the op.

When i was a child i noticed that when i took a two hour trip in a car the ride to the destination always seemed much longer then the trip home…why? well because i was anticipating getting to the new destination and then going home was just going home. Could also have something to do with already taking the trip one time so going back was still in my mind and the thrill was gone.

I am surprised though because i have seen so many of these threads and just something i took for granted.

Age does have something to do with it too and the environment we grow up in. For example, in the 70s and 80s there was no internet so kids had to entertain themselves.

Not a fan of meditating since it is absolutely NO different than shutting off all the crap, quit the multitasking apps, multiple tabs open etc. and THINK…THINK…THINK.

Although that said, we had better movies, music and t.v shows to watch where the writers were actually intelligent.

Dear sis Bun bun, you are correct go to Matthew ch 24vs 22

It's a psychological phenomena, as you age your perception of time changes. Look it up, there are plenty of studies.

No its not(even though the phenomena exists), it c(the speed of light decaying), look it up on the internet, look up Barry setterfield, very interesting, c has been measured accurately for 300 years now, and that means it can be demonstrated as real. What does it mean, well it radically affects e=mc2

Time is only a tool we created, to keep everything flowing in order. Its just a means of control.
Many argue it doesn't even really exist

It's called the quickening.

And it is upon us.

When you are one year old, one year is 100% of your life.

When you are 50 years old, one year is 5% of your life...thus, one year seems to be much shorter and go by quicker.


Time seems to speed up when you age. That's just how it goes.



Having said that, time really doesn't even exist anyways. We made it up. Chew on that...

It's called getting older.
