What's your personal opinion ?

Time is perceived to speed up as one develops coherency, a personal narrative, in maturing. Hence, life is long for the 5 year old, short for the 55 year old.
"Climb the Highest Mountain," Mark Prophet, "Watch Your Dreams," Ann Ree Colton, and "Man, Master of His Destiny," Aivanhov, are good. "The Reincarnation of Edgar Cayce?", Free and Wilcock, and "Life before Life," Jim Tucker, M.D., play with "time" in that topical, cyclical way.

It is long, and when I feel empty and lonely it can seem the longest thing in the whole world, so long that it is never ending....
And other times, when I think of all the things I want to do and achieve and experience in my lifetime, it does not seem nearly long enough and I feel I will never get It all done...
It entirely depends on your perspective, I believe....
Most of the time though, It seems much too short.... :(

In the history of the Universe, short. In relation to humans that have come before us, quite long. As to my personal view, I want to see how it all turns out, so way way to short.

Both. Life is both terrible and beautiful.
Day and Night
Sun and Moon
Woman and Man
Anal and Vaginal
There is a good and bad in everything which makes the good times short and the bad times long.

It's not a matter how long you live.
It'a matter how much u have accomplished in your life.
Some ppl die young, but they managed to achieve something remarkable that ppl will remember and live in their memories.
Where as some people live their whole life long without realising what they living for.

it's short to do all you want but it's long for you to make an effect on the general life to give your dreams { good ones } the ability to live after you are gone.
thanks yahoo

Life looks short for satisfied and successful people, but looks painfully long for others. But no one can claim it to be too long unless one is intending suicide!!

time passes equally for each human. life is an equal reflection of time for everyone, life would then be neither long or short. only time in relation to perception.

Short, coz we'll never know what will happen, until some of us will finally realize... it's our time to go. :(
But despite of that, life is still enjoyable, so let's try the things we haven't try yet, and more important... live life to the fullest. :)

Well, it depends on your situation, really.. If you're like me who's waiting for death, then its long..... but to somebody who's dying or someone who is enjoying life and those who has lived for their purpose.. then it's short..
