Passage of Time
See, I have this theory
about the passage of time. Remember when
you were a kid and Christmas and your birthday took FOREVER to arrive? Every day was an agonizing wait in the dentist's
office. Then, suddenly, you're an adult
and five years zip by at the drop of a hat.
Your days race past in a blur.
One day, you're graduating, the next you're married, and before you can
turn around, you have kids who are driving nicer cars than you.
Here's my perception of
how it works: when you're six years old,
a year is one-sixth of your accumulated lifetime. When you're fifteen, it's one-fifteenth. When you're 30, it's one-thirtieth, 40 a
fortieth, etc. (Okay, okay, you get the
picture.)
Simple, isn't it?
