surely, scientifically its all bobbins that time is speeding up, its just depending on your day and what you are doing; that'll make you experience your time as either fast or slow...

They're getting longer around here. I swear it was light at 5pm last night :shock:

Remember though, time itself is an illusion we created so as to have a tangible means by which to control our lives and place value to this, that and the other.

Maybe we just need to become Zen Buddhists and exist only in the NOW... other wise you have one foot in yesterday the other in tomorrow and find yourself set to pisss all over today. :twisted:

nope...only "now" exists, no yesterday, no tomorrow...just now, living in each second as the only "time" we should be aware of...

St Augustine of Hippo wrote in his 'confessions' :
    ''What then is Time ? If no one asks me, I know ; but if I wish to explain it to one that asketh, I know not. Yet I say boldly, that I know that if nothing passed away, Time past were not; and if nothing were coming (into existance), a Time to come were not; and if nothing existed, Time present were not. These two Times, then, past and to come, how are they, seeing the past now is not, and that to come is not yet ? But the present, if it were always the present, and never passed into Time past, would surely not be Time, but Eternity.''
