Have you ever looked back in time and wondered how fast your life had passed?

[TonyMetal___86]

Sometimes i look back in time and see myself when i was a teenager back in the 90's and what i used to do and how the world was back then and look at myself now and wonder how all these years had passed in a glimpse of an eye...

[Texaskid1]

Such is the nature of things.

When your are young time seems to pass by so slow. When I was a teen in high school I though that being 30 years old was 10,000 years off. The years and the days would pass so slow. I still remember my childhood summers free of the drudgery of school. Those summers were filled with the adventures of riding my bike around town with all my buddies , climbing trees, hopping fences, watching my favorite movies , fire works!!!

And it all felt like it was going to last forever.

Now as a 45 year old time seems to fly by so quicky!!!

As we get older time goes by a lot faster.

[TonyMetal___86]

Beautiful childhood 🙂
That's true when you get older, time seems to pass fast and these beautiful days that passed will remain as beautiful memories...

[Slingblade1126]

All the time. There is a guy on here that always calls me "old man" and it cuts like a knife. All the way to my soul! I try not to let it bother me but it does. On the bright side, I have a beautiful wife and four amazing daughters and he is a 31yr old virgin that has no game. He also has tits and lips like a baboons ass and has to ride a reinforced bike to his job at Applebee's.

[TonyMetal___86]

Don't let such people effect you, by the way you ain't old at all...
Boys these days are disrespectful!

[exitseven]

I tell people that on a good day I can put guys half my age to shame. The problem is I don't have as many good days as I used to

[sage2021]

Yes, at my old age I am getting closer - I have one foot in the grave and the other kicking the dirt in.
Seriously, I am very sad and afraid.
Will y'all miss me when I croke off?
Sage 🌹😎

[TonyMetal___86]

Hey don't say that 🙂
You ain't that old!
All the people who likes you don't wanna miss you cause they want you to be present between them 😌
I'll lift your foot from. the grave cause that's not where it belongs, it belongs in your house or to be walking in a beautiful garden 😊

[sage2021]

@TonyMetal__86
Aww! Thank you Tony. You are so kind to me. Your words gave me some thoughts, and I feel better now.
Sage 🌹

[TonyMetal___86]

You're welcome and i'm glad that your feeling better 😊

[itsalyssaagain]

Yeah sometimes I look at myself and I can’t believe I’m a full adult

[TonyMetal___86]

Thanks for sharing...

[WanderingLoveWizard]

It gets worse

[itsalyssaagain]

Oh well haha

[WanderingLoveWizard]

Lol. Not for a while though, don't worry

[dynamicyandere]

Yeah. 10 years flew, by but it felt like 2 years. My 20’s were gone in a blink of an eye.


I learned a lot and I’ve grown a lot. But still, it’s amazing how fast time can fly.


It makes me want to be ever more intentional with how I spend my time.

[TonyMetal___86]

Very true!

[humanearth]

I was 12 in 1980 and when In look In the mirror now. I see this old man looking back. (Just like your photo)

Once I hit my 50s, every thing hurts now. From my fingers, knees, hips and more

Hair is now starting to fall out and I'm totally grey now.

[TonyMetal___86]

You ain't very old, actually you're still middle aged but for sure if you're going to compare yourself with the 12 year old you than there's going to be a lot of differences unless you were will smith 🤣🤣

[humanearth]

Compared to most on here, I'm old

And I think Will Smith and I might be the same age

[TonyMetal___86]

That is true, will smith is 54, look at him at the age of 18, 25, 35, 50 and now? It's like the picture have never changed, i think that he's one in a billion or in billions, never saw a man who never ages!
I think after a couple of years his kids will look older than him...
Been watching will smith since the 90's when he was still in his 20's, now after all these years i still think that i'm watching the same guy from the same years even though 27 years or more have passed 😂😂

[humanearth]

Look up the famous Dick Clark.

They said he never aged

[Fireguy17]

Yes, the older you get the faster time goes by.
I remember how my 15th year class reunion hit me.
I was out of school longer than I was in school.
As a kid school never seems to end, yet where did those 15 years go and why did the pass so quickly?

[TonyMetal___86]

True, when you're doing something you feel that it's long and that it's never gonna end but if when you finish and look back in time, you will be surprised how fast it passed

[coachTanthony]

Yes I remember it's unbelievable how fast life passes you by. So don't wait. If there is something you want to do then go do it. The older you get the more chances it won't happen due to lack of physical capabilities.

[TonyMetal___86]

Also the whole world is changing and i believe that there will be a point where you won't be able to keep updated... so we better enjoy every second in our lives...

[Anonymous]

Yes. And here is the kicker for you, the time I look back on with most satisfaction is in my 30s. I enjoyed every decade from 10 years on but I felt like I most had it together in my 30s and at 37 I felt the most competent all around although I am surely wiser now.

[TonyMetal___86]

Maybe the best days of your life happened when you were in your 30's...

[Opinion Owner]

It’s all been good but I had my shot together, family, career, great health. It was awesome.

[TonyMetal___86]

That's good 👍🏻

[exitseven]

Yes, when I say 2023 I have to stop and wonder if i am not getting it wrong. It seems unbelievsble.

[TonyMetal___86]

True...

[Uzi777]

You know, as a 42 year old, I look at myself and think... damn, i still look like a lot of these 20 year olds. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[TonyMetal___86]

That's good 👍🏻

[WanderingLoveWizard]

The less you have to look back on, the shorter it will all seem

[TonyMetal___86]

Tnx for sharing

[Guardian45]

I still think and feel like a teenager, despite my age. That's part of my daily review. Welcome to The Club.

[TonyMetal___86]

Wonderful 👍🏻

[Likes2drive]

Yeah, every once in a while I do and haven’t been a teenager since the early 80s

[TonyMetal___86]

Tnx for sharing

[DeanFreed]

Yes
We only get one opportunity
I'm mid fifties and looking to wind down
Good friend of mine passed away
I had a good old blast!

[TonyMetal___86]

I see ☹

[Drumlin2001]

Yeah. Get reminders on my phone from 5 years ago, before I met my OH. We now have 2 kids who are growing real fast. Life is very different now from then

[Guardian45]

What is an OH?

[Drumlin2001]

Other Half

[TonyMetal___86]

@Drumlin2001 especially on facebook, they keep reminding you of your memories hehe

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Every time I look in the mirror lol

[TonyMetal___86]

You're different sponge, you never age so don't cheat 😁

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Never age? Seems like aging more every day lol

[TonyMetal___86]

Sponges are immortal 💆🏼‍♀️😬

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

But then I’m not a sponge so🤷‍♀️

[TonyMetal___86]

Silence clarisse! 😤 you're a sponge, don't worry no one knows ☻

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Okay Hannibal lecter😁

[NostalgiaSenpi]

Yeah, which was why I was so obsessed with finding someone.

[TonyMetal___86]

Finding someone like who?

[NostalgiaSenpi]

A wife. I thought "finding someone" was obviously a romantic relationship. My fault for assuming.

[KostasKouvalis]

Oh yeah! As a matter of fact, I almost ended up in a mental institution because of it

[TonyMetal___86]

Not to this point and you're still very young...

[altaboy]

Yup. Oh look at that! It's Friday already!

[TonyMetal___86]

Tnx for sharing

[alara-chan]

Not fast

[TonyMetal___86]

You're still young 😄

[KrakenAttackin]

Without a doubt.

[TonyMetal___86]

Everything around us is changing, sometimes i pass by the neighborhood where i grew and starts to replay my memories, sometimes i just wish if i can go back in time and live these moments again, but sadly it's impossible...
