"Time seems to move so quickly these days".
Actually, time moves at precisely the same pace as always. However as a percent of our total experience, we see it differently.
Why then - when I was a kid, did summer seem to last longer?
A season (let's say summer - I like summer) lasts for three months. At age 50, a season is .005 of my total experience. At age ten it was only .025 of my total experience. So at age ten, summer (as a percent of total experience) was 5 times longer.
There you have it.
