How fast time passes. Years pass very quickly now and the view of the end is approaching faster than I would like.
You didn't ask for advice, but please consider journaling or writing a personal blog. I find that the time passes faster because I have fewer novel experiences as I get older. If I put a dedicated effort into remembering what was unique about my recent days, it feels like I live more of them.
Came here for the life pro tips, this is exactly what I was looking for!
You found it little buddy.
Yeah I'm guessing this has to be why time feels to pass faster. When you're growing, there are so many milestones and rapid changes from ages 0 to maybe 22. Beyond that, everything is the same until you die. That's an interesting way to make it longer.
Each time period (week, year etc) is a smaller proportion of your life.
Anything that happened when I was much younger can't be resolved easily to the nearest year, unless I can identify a specific immutable event like a specific birthday.
