I was on the rapid transit in Cleveland, going to work downtown when a woman tapped me on the shoulder and politely told me that I had my blouse on backwards. Yes, it was inside-out. I left Cleveland in 1987 and this was at least 5 years earlier, maybe even as far back as the late 1970s. I was in my 20s, miserable, going to a job I was grateful to have but hated, and knowing I had decades to go. In other words, I wasn't hung over from partying too much or something similar. Just depressed.

I made it, however and in retrospect, time FLEW BY. it went a lot faster than I would have believed had someone told me this at the time. A lot of people told me time would fly by, but nobody believes it at that age, whether you're happy or not.

My DH and I attend lots of SG concerts and several days long music events throughout the year. Oftentimes we are scheduling things several months or even a year in advance. Most of the time it's all good but this year we already have something on the calendar and I will be missing my dream opportunity to see Tom Jones, which I just learned about maybe a month ago. It's his only USA performance and it's only a couple hours away from us, but I'll miss it because we've already made a commitment and someone else is counting on us.

I read an article a while back that tried to explain why time seems to go faster for older people than younger people and children.

It said that older people have fewer new experiences and more routines. Our brain processes routines more quickly while new experiences require the brain to encode more details. The result is people who have very similar days see time blending together and passing more quickly. It also mentioned that the older we get, the more we realize there's less time before our death. This also creates a sense of time moving quickly. Obviously, a day is always the same amount of time, but our perception of how fast time passes changes as we age and experience fewer new things.

Hope it's going slower and calmer for the rest of you all.

There is nothing in her post about shoes,still don't understand .

Some people posting about rushing around so much they put on the wrong shoes as an example of rush, rush, rush.

Imagine that the shoes were fuzzy pink bedroom slippers.
