Ever since I was like 12 years old, I've had thoughts about growing old before my time. Even when I was 6, I felt like time was passing me by. I know it's really weird for a kid to think this way, but it's true. I can remember laying awake many nights, thinking about time flying, loved ones growing old, etc. And I would cry. I would wish I could slow time down.
OK - that's young, but old enough to have some perspective. You are right that time (life) is a gift and that it can pass by rapidly.
Most people wait till they're old to find that reality of life, realising it earlier puts u at an advantage to make your life worthwhile. Enjoy.
try to sleep tight everynight and do your own things with passion, that's the key
Savor every day. Time does fly by. At 52 I find the years going by at warp speed. I see it as a reason to get motivated to get all that "stuff" done.
its not normal.....but I'm the same.... not that im distressed about time passing and people growing old and dying...but I am ALWAYS aware of it...ALL the time. And have been for as long as i remember. I notice how long things take because i hate to waste amounts of time...they seem SO fleeting..and they are. I even calculate the effects certain habits will have of me far to astutely....being aware of time passing in that way.... mortality is something we all have to become aware of, comprehend and eventually accept. We should probably try not to fixate on it...as it lessens the pleasure of being alive.... like taking a picture when your having an amazing time...you have to step out of it to take the picture...be aware of it...record it instead of just experience it. We should be just experiencing it instead of watching it pass by...
How old are you now - seems you imagine living life more than you have actually lived it.
