Why Time Goes Faster As You Get Older

Coined by psychology writer Claudia Hammond, the Holiday Paradox refers to the idea that when we go on vacation, a week or even two weeks seem to go by so quickly we can barely believe that we had a vacation at all. Yet when the vacation is over, and we look back on it, it feels like it was much longer than just one week.
Why does this happen? And what can we do about it?

Isnât it weird how the internet was once a place to get away from the world, now the world is a place to get away from the internet.

Im afraid of waking up at 70 and wondering where all my life went

My grandma once told me âLifeâs like unraveling a ball of yarn slow at first but speeds up the more you goâ.

As children, one tends to be in the moment, present. As one ages, they tend not to be present but be living in their heads, living in the past or worring about the future.

I get clowned on by my family for always "getting into new hobbies". Something always told me the purpose of life overall is to experience as much as we can while we're here. This video now affirms that belief.

My dad once took me to the museums in Chicago, just me and him. I was fascinated with ancient history so I pulled out my device and began to film every artifact, even focusing in on the plaques describing the more interesting ones. He asked me what I was doing and I told him I never want to forget any of this so Iâm filming it. He laughed and said good job son. Was my favorite vacation ever. Just one thing though, my âdeviceâ was simply my hands held in a rough square shape in front of my face. This was in the mid 80s. I called it my video recorder but of course we couldnât afford one. 3 years ago I took my wife to see all the same things there(being very careful, it is Chicago) and I took so many pictures with my phone. Still wonderful experience and she loved it too. I canât help but feel my late father was there with us in spirit. Thanks Pop!

Man, seems like just yesterday I came here for âshower thoughts,â even though it was years agoâŠ.Time sure does move differently than it used to for me.

My dad once said âlife is like a roll of toilet paper, at first it goes by slow and youâll think it will last forever, but the closer you get to the end, the quicker it goes.â

As a child, we had no comprehension of the importance of time or how limited it is. Once you comprehend the value of time, it starts to fly by

As someone who is currently in the late teens age range, I guess it's about time to go out more to make some memorable memories

After 24 years life speeds up at 28 life is on speed running mode

Was talking with my partner about this. We are in our mid 40s. So crazy how fast life is now.

When I was little I thought my mother remembered every day of her life, because I did. I thought.

Im 32 this year and tbh yes I agree with most of the vid. However, a MAJOR catalyst of this was the pandemic. Itâs stole like 3 years of all our lives, and nothing has been the same since, here in the UK, all the services that used to work half decent have never gone back to pre-pandemic levels, everything has been automated or halved in output, I have been trying to get a doctors appointment for MONTHS.. what used to be the norm to get an emergency appointment is now the the norm for a normal appointment.. it doesnât work at all. That goes for almost all services. Along with the internet, what used to be an escape from the world has now flipped on its head and I use the world to escape from the internet.. I absolutely hate this corporate consumer driven internet mentality.. almost no services available have human interaction. Everybody hates each other now, more than ever before. The world has gone backwards.
