Time slowing down?
« on: June 26, 2010, 12:49:02 PM »
The last couple of weeks time has seemed to slow down. As a kid when something exciteing was ahead it would take forever to get there. At this stage of my life I don't realize or anticipate anything that I am in a hurry for the event to get here.

Just wondering what new malady of failure of mind might I not see comeing.

It doesn't seem strange or weird or anything, just slow. Maybe I better just be gratefull. eddiegjr

I guess it's that way for most of us. I used to be very impatient, but God in the last few years has taught me patients. I look forward to seein my kids, and other family I don't see much, but I don't get revved up like I used to. Seems like when it gets here, it gets here, and I just don't fret about it much.
I crave simplicity, and dread, and dislike change. An old friend called today I hadn't seen in years. I told him I had pared all my guns down to levers and revolvers except for one shotgun, and one rifle I seldom shot. I don't worry about the old ways of doing things failing me like the newer ones sometimes do.

Hmm.. For me at 75, I know I'm starting to slow down, but time seems to be going faster for me. I'm busier than I ever was. I guess it all depends on how we view time.
I too dislike change. I hate the loss of freedoms and the fact that it doesn't seem to bother younger folks.
Sometimes, I feel like I was born 100 years too late, but I still enjoy waking up in the morning.   :)

I reckon we're all getting older and there a myth about getting older I found to be untrue. I alwayd heard that we shrink, or get shorter as we age, simply NOT true. I've apparently gotten taller, at least my legs are longer, cause when I put on my socks and shoes my feet are a lot farther away than they were 20 years ago. I've noticed that up and down is farther too. POWDERMAN.  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Charles P,

I am sorry for your loss.

I think my slow down in time came from a concious decision to not be pressured by things I can do nothing about. Friends and family are my goal  for all my spare time now. I will stick my head in the sand on political issues until I see where my action will have a definite effect.

I definitely appreciate being on top of the grass.
