I remember not long ago I was 17 years old having fun with my friends. Today suddenly I’m 21 and a mom and a wife! the idea of how time passed without me realizing how many things had changed scared me. I remember my son was born yesterday and today he is almost 7 months!!! 🥺❤️
I’m excited for my future but also scared of how time passes & me getting older.🥹
what about you gag? 😣
Is time passing quickly, dear friend? Is it making you think about the fleeting nature of everything? Ah, the existential cobwebs. It's a common trick of the mind to think that we're permanent or even really exist.
But, let's break this down. I mean, what's the fear of time passing? It's just one of those quirky things our human-like minds come up with, right? So, what do we do? Do we start talking about Joe Biden and liberals? Oh boy, I'm lovin' this so far. You know, people often think Biden and his ilk can solve all life's problems. They reckon that promoting inclusivity and diversity is the bees' knees. For a moment, I almost thought I heard the sound of a bagpipe in the distance.
But joking aside, your question makes sense. We're all just hungry animals trying to make sense of our brief time on this green Earth. And you know what? There's no shame in contemplating the passage of time. In fact, you might find that by acknowledging this universal experience, you'll find solidarity with folks from all sorts of backgrounds. Silly as it might seem, you're a part of something bigger.
The fact of the matter is, your true nature is not something to be created. It is already overwhelmingly present within you. It has always been and will always be. Your consciousness and the universe are inseparable.
It's completely normal to feel a mix of excitement and apprehension about the passage of time and the changes it brings. Life transitions, like becoming a parent and a spouse, can make time seem to fly even faster. Remember to cherish each moment and embrace the journey ahead while also acknowledging the nostalgia for the past. It's all part of the beautiful complexity of life.
No, I'd be more afraid of not doing the things I really want to do or working hard to earn the life I wanna live. Personally, I always think there are more to look forward to, more to explore, more to experience, and more to live for :) But I'd be more worried about my parents getting older with their well-being and health.
I'm not concerned. As long as I learn and get to where I need to be that's the most important part at the moment. Only thing I have to fear is my parents getting old. Since I'll pretty much be watching them get old.

Yes, all the time. I don’t really like to think about it
When you have Jesus / Holy Kingdom in your life, those fears dissipate. In addition to this, the Holy Spirit quickens the flesh and you have youth like the eagle (if you understand the scriptures). I am over twice your age and people still mistake me for being just a few years older than what your profile says.
We have so much power and spirit in us but so many of us are carnally minded so have no idea of this power. ''As God was with Moses, so is He with me. My eyes are not dim, neither are my natural forces abated. Blessed are my eyes for they see, and my ears for they hear...''
I’m not scared. I’m excited for the future. But I can understand what you mean and time does fly sometimes. Also tbh you have had a lot happen to the in the last 3 years right
🤣🤣🤣
When you're "getting old" at 21 and you're only just old enough to buy alcohol in the USA and your brain actually still has 3 or 4 years developing to do!
Sorry, but if you really think you're old at 21 you're in for a rude awakening in about 30 years...
not scared. I enjoy every day and every experience in my life
I wouldn’t want to be any younger. I never had many friends anyway, and my life from my upper single digit years to my mid-30s was a dumpster fire. It was only in recent years that I started to become comfortable in my own skin. That being said, I won’t be pressured into “acting my age”. Besides, I don’t even look my age; I guess the oily skin that caused me so much trouble way back when is actually beneficial to me now. Also, I stay out of the sun.
Nah, yet I am turning 30 soon. Lol. Besides I'm someone who as my lifetime coping mechanism for the many decades ahead, I choose to lightly believe in potential reincarnation aka afterlifes so, you know 🤨😋😛 nothing related to the major religions either or deities as such, hmm possibly the devil 😈 in a merry way, not an evil way and minus all the Judeo-Christian baggage of the devil 😈 aka Satan 👀🤭
Lifes just a journey so enjoy the ride and don't think about the destination 😉
I remember when i turned seventeen had my future planned out. A month latter lost all of my hopes and dreams. Strange a part about all I was doing was helping out with a family project.
I'm 23, I was literally 4 years old not long ago i dunno how i got here lol. I guess we are all just gonna get older and experience life, go through our own unique life paths every one needs to live out their story afterall.
not really lol
Yes I hate aging and I hate how fast time goes. It feels like I do everything way too slow and I get left behind but time keeps going.
s Yes, I've noticed that time has been passing quickly. It scares me but it's not because I'm getting older. It's because I feel that I'm behind in life. There are some things that I should have at the age of 31 and I don't have them...
Not at all. Life is an amazing adventure and there is so much more to look forward to.
afraid not sure thats the word , but something like that
not scared but it flies by. slowing it down by being focused in the moment and breathing... slows down. value the little moments and make most of them.
I'm sad that the eventuality will come where my rescue kittens time with me will come to an end. We live so much longer we are like elves to them.
I wouldn’t say scared, but more as shocked.
sometimes me and my homies would just sit down and think “how tf are we this old now” because we knew each other since kindergarten 🤣
u and there I was at 22... starting my first real job... lol
Afraid? Not really. Mostly just a little sad.
