Time Goes By too Fast

Posted on by

Do you ever lay in bed at night and wonder what the future will be like? Who you will be with? kids? job? family? friends?

Life seems to be going by so fast these days, in the present I think to myself “Why isn’t it the weekend yet?” but then when the weekend is here it passes in an instant. “I wish there was a whole month of weekends.” Too much to ask? Probably. The saying, “time flies when you’re having fun” is definitely the case, but why does time have to go so fast. Time is funny. We save time, spend time, waste time, watch time, etc. Time is not just a figure it’s an object that we use and take for granted.

“If only we could bottle the moments that we cherish and relive them as we please.” 11 weeks until graduation…where did the time go? I’ve heard people tell me that there is nothing to look forward about when you get older, past 21 nothing is exciting. Did you ever notice that when you ask someone how old they are they dramatically answer, “Too old.” People worry too much about their age. Aging is a part of life and goes along with time. Personally I think when younger people respond with, “too old” it’s because they want to feel authority and less like a young adult, possibly seeking more responsibility?…Who knows?

Say I live to 100. I’ve already lived 21% of my life, most of which was spent in school. Now what to do with the 79 yrs left?

“We all have a destiny and things happen for a reason the question is, When will we know when we get there?“

    I think we never “get there”, but in a way we are “always there”. We are constantly where we are supposed to be, but we are also constanly changing and growing, learning, experiencing. There should never be a point when we just stop because we have “gotten there”. Also, I want to say that I am 27 and I have had so many more experiences in my twenties, more than the previous years. I admire a 21 year old for thinking about things this! I never read blogs but Im going to start reading yours

    Hi Krissy,

    Thank you. I agree with everything you said, life goes along and we make the best of it. When I wrote that post I thought maybe someone else felt the same way…I’m happy to know that someone read my post. I was talking to friend about how time goes fast when you are in a relationship, a good relationship. Those times I wish time could freeze, but only good can come in the future.

    Thanks again. I try and post once or twice a week or whenever something is on my mind. Hope you keep reading :)
