I am of the opinion that time is perceived as passing faster the older you become. I live n Cancun Mexico and time seems to pass quickly. When I use to live in the U.S.A I'd see the seasons change and time seemed to drag by slowly... Here it is sunny most of the year with just a rainy season, so for me it seems very fast the holidays fly by and then... hey it's already new years again.
The idea of repetition of early life events changing ones perception of time seems accurate the older we become
But then if we do not ever take time, how can we ever have time? ... there is only one constant, one universal, it is the only real truth: causality. --- The Merovingian
A most excellent post to spend time on ;-)
