Does time flow too quickly or too slowly for you?

Question

HawkPerception · Accepted Answer

Way too quickly. I swear the nephews and nieces are growing up at such a rapid rate. I blink and they go from barely playing piano well to reading complex songs and playing them effortlessly. From playing with toys to wanting to start businesses of their own. From small babies to kickboxing gold medalists.

My friends all have kids too and they're growing up fast too. And my life... nothing seems to change. My mentality, my living standards, everything. Life just seems to be passing me at light speed. I feel the get togethers with family and friends last such a short time.

At this rate, I feel like I'll blink and life will be over for me.

Both I feel like days go by quickly but hours are slow  Sometimes one day will take forever but then I realize a week has passed It’s a weird thing honestly

Since I'm not traveling near the speed of light, time is pretty constant for me.

For most of my life, time seemed to drag on horribly.

Over the past year and a half, there have been many things of a traumatic nature going on in my life.

Over that period, time seems to warp slower and faster, with my ability to recollect recent timelines being very skewed.

I try to keep events noted on my calendar to use as a reliable reference.
When I try to recall timelines in my head, then look at my calendar to confirm what I'm thinking about, I'm almost always astounded by the inaccuracies produced by my own mind.

Too fast… but I wish my life can slow down a little bit. Hopefully 2026, my life can slow down from being too busy. Some people wish for things to go fast, but I learned the hard way it’s not always that healthy. We need balance and a little self-time to catch our breath.

Time doesn’t move too fast or too slow, it flows exactly as it should..

It only feels different depending on what’s filling it, chaos stretches it, peace softens it..

When u r aligned with your purpose, time stops being something u chase..

It becomes something u command..

It is way too fast. Summer went by so fast I never even saw it go by. Halloween is Friday. In a few weeks it will be Thanksgiving and then Christmas.

It seems like a few weeks ago that I put the Christmas decorations in the loft from last Christmas.

Time seems to go quicker as soon as you have kids. You count the years as time goes by taking care of them. Your kids' age becomes a new measure.

I'd say it depends on the day and how things are going. Some days it's feels like things drag on forever at other times it's a blink of an eye and it's been 12 hours.
