Shallow Thoughts with Dave Snelling

2006-11-19

Time flies!

Wow, here it is November already. It seems the older I get the faster time goes by. I remember as a kid thinking summer was endless. The days until I could get back to school and see all my friends seemed to strech out forever. When I graduated high school and joined the Army, things speeded up a little but mostly that was a result of the "Hurry Up an Wait" syndrome that affects all units. Then, when I left the service and entered civilian life time sped up once again. It seemed the mortgage payments and other bills were just paid and then due again.

Time seemed to resume a normal rate for a year or two until all the kids were in school and then Wham! it doubled again. Sports, music and field trips seemed to sneek up on us. Once again, when the children were all graduated the pace of life slowed to normal.

Oh Oh! The grandchildren started coming along and good ole time started running faster again. It seems they grow up overnight.

I guess Mr Einstein is entirely correct "Time is Relative"
