Has time been kicked into high speed?

Question

I've noticed since the last part of 2006, that it seems time has accelerated. Does anyone feel this way also? Or is it just because I'm older, busier and have 3 kids that require my attention ALL THE TIME? It seems when I sit to do projects or such, its like , I don't get a chance to catch up on my thnking and thoughts. Its like, I have no time to just sit and just relax, i feel I have to keep doing something.

Semyaza, now that was some crazy sh**! That almost makes some sense to me though I'm going to look into more of what you're talking about, thank you., I'm going to keep this topic open just a little longer just to get some more input.

Hello

This is a relevant question for our times. As Einstein proved, time is a constant, but the perception of time, which is measured via motion, is relative to the observer.

In theory, the faster you move the more time you'll get. That is why busy people achieve more in the same time as unbusy ones.

The world is being marketed with gadgets and stuff, all aimed at "Saving you time", but why do we need to save time? It probably is because many of us are experiencing life similarly to you. We feel time "slipping" by, and often end up frustrated because we can't indulge our inner desires more.

I've been wondering if the essence of time has not slowly been changing though. If you consider a more natural time example, such as the lunar time, one might notice that the moon stages are popping out regularly still, but seemingly not at the same staged interval (new moon, 1/4 moon, half moon, 3/4 moon, full moon etc.) as it did about 20 years ago.

According to scientists, the true North pole is actually shifting Eastwards, and significantly so, by a few inches every year. This suggests the earth axis is shifting. Surely this must affect our time?

Another notion to entertain is that the earth's frequency is seemingly diminishing. This used to be a scientific constant for always, but until around 20 years ago, scientists became aware that the frequency is constantly declining. Why is this important? The human body seemingly resonates with earth in the same frequency as the earth. We are indeed of the earth (sorry alien theorists).

If the earth's frequency is dropping, that means the human body's frequency also has to adjust. This could possibly make a lot of people go crazy, and do crazy things, especially those genetically predisposed to going crazy, as such a natural adaptation process would be extremely stressful on the human mind.

Modern medicine has given mankind many numbers of people who would never otherwise have survived the birth process. We thwarted natural selection via C-sections and other marvels of medical technology. Now, earth has to endure those who may have failed genetically, in some way or another. We have to put up with the reality we created for ourselves.

More pertinently, your reality, although relative, is what you created. We have to find the inner peace to match personal realities to our natural timeclocks. In other words, we need to eat properly and rest to sustain our bodies, minds, and health.

Yet, we also have to work to sustain our socio-economic positions. It's a tough balance to maintain, and I think we fail more than succeed. Nevertheless, time is a constant, and we need to rather select natural time (of the earth and the body) than synthetic time (of technology and social pressures).

This would provide us with a lot more time to do the things we love to do, as our priorities would probably change from travelling, speeding around, shopping, TV, Internet, to enjoying a smile on our child's face, savouring a slow sunset, soaking up the energy of a dramatic storm, or just sitting in silence with those we love.

May you have much time to enjoy that which you love most.

Your mind is like a computer program running through a list of “things to think about.”

When it gets to the bottom of the list, it adds one ‘tick’ to your internal clock, then jumps back to the top of your ‘list’ and starts working it’s way back down.

When the list is small, your internal clock ticks very quickly, which makes external time seem slower. Boredom makes time drag.

When you’ve got a million things to think about (long list), this increases the time between ticks. External time races by because your internal clock is running slowly. Time flies when you’re having fun. (or way too busy)

The Space-Time continuum remains intact, your sense of it though is changing big time.

Enjoy those kids.

What you’re actually referring to here as time is our “sense of time” which is, not surprisingly, appears to be very flexible or variable. Sense of time by the way is nothing more than just “feeling”. It isn’t uncommon to find that our sense of time slowing down when we’re expecting something very excited. But if we’re about to submit our unfinished reports against a deadline then time seems to fly like an eagle!

Physical time can be variable according to Einstein’s theory of relativity. But in everyday common experience we couldn’t feel it because we don’t travel near the speed of light yet. According to the said theory, time slows down significantly relative to a fixed observer when one travels near the speed of light.

Answer 4

Have you ever heard the saying, "time flies when you're having fun."?

Well, there are many instances when time seems to go faster. But, it's unlikely that time itself has actually sped up, you just feel like it did.

Answer 5

this is the result of advance technology that we had which are going beyond advance that even our biological body & mind could not catch up.

Information nowadays travelled faster and beyond our capacity, thus making us to think advance on everything that we are about to do.

Answer 6

going faster at the beggining of school slow now!

Answer 7

yes all of the above
