Question

Why does time seem to pass faster as we age?

Answer 1

time seems to move faster but in reality it is us who are starting to slow down some due to age and bones starting to hurt and not being able to keep up. at first you gulp dowm your soda {coca cola} not you sip it

Answer 2

time doesnt pass faster. we just dont slow down to see what is going on around us so when we do take a break the world is long gone. and we missed it ourselves. it is us that is moving to fast. to find where we came from. never getting back.

Answer 3

As Einstein said, time is relative! We have a different frame of reference.

Answer 4

Here's the real answer. When you're a day old, that day is your entire life, so it seems very long. When you're ten years old, a day is only 1/3650th of your life, so it's a smaller fraction. When you're 50, a day is an even smaller fraction. Those fractions become smaller and smaller as you age, so the time is faster because it is relative to the length of your life. Does that answer it clearly?

Answer 5

cos when we are young we are waiting to be 16 so we can do this, 18 so we can do that, 21 so we can do the other! we are waiting for "events" to occur. once you reach an age when you have to take responsibility for yourself, no more ironing done, meals cooked, pocket money from mum/dad, your time is taken up caring for yourself, family, home etc so time seems to fly by because the free time has long gone!!!

Answer 6
