It really does seem to be going fast for them. Look at how much time seems to have elapsed (they’ve moved from room to room to room to room and are wearing different clothes) just while this conversation was occurring.
Young, you can’t wait to grow up, while in school time goes slowly, then when you work, quitting time you look forward to, they after being retired a while, you wish you could go back and repeat your earlier life over again!
Having a garden slows things down, from the seeds finally sprouting, to the first blossoms, fruits and vegetables slowly developing. Then finally, the birds pecking the ripe fruit, the squirrels chowing down on the grapes and hazelnuts; but nothing ever bothers the zucchini!
I kind of go by when school lets out and starts again. Brad works at the local high school and it seems like had graduation and now they go back on Monday. Where DID the summer break go? (He works all year but still, it seems as it time flies)
Oh, if only “pause” and “mute” buttons would work in real life….sun rises/sunsets could last longer, and you could “mute” the noise you didn’t want to hear!

Time has reversed. It is no longer time since birth that matters but time until death.

If this is true, they should all age. Nelson should be in high school.

The Circle Game
…16 springs and 16 summers gone now
Cartwheels turn to car wheels through the town
And they tell him, "Take your time, it won’t be long now
’Til you drag your feet to slow the circles down"
