Do you find the years go faster as you get older?

I have discovered this, especially after I have had children. I have no idea where the past years have went. It amazes me actually. It has almost been 5 years since I moved out of my parents house, and it has already been 3 years since my first son was born. It seem like all of this happened just yesterday! I have found that the older I get, the quicker time flies. Hell, in no time, I will be 30! I wish time would slow down a bit so I could enjoy it more. Do you find that time goes faster as you mature? Do you wish it would slow down a bit? Or are you happy with the pace of your life?

Absolutely! I'm sixty-five and have more past than I have future. Talk about time flying! I'm retired and thought my life would slow down when I quit working. Don't believe it! I'm as busy if not busier than when I was working and I just can't keep up with how quickly the world is changing. Grandchildren grow even faster than my own children did, and that seemed to happen overnight. I don't even remember being 30! Nothing special about that benchmark. We need to be more present in our present, grateful for all it holds. Tomorrow it will be gone. Of course, you get a new present! Enjoy.

Now the time move faster.I allmost dont notice the period between 2 birthdays. I want it to slow down-not so much because of me, but because of my old and ill parents.
