It seems like an eternity when you're a kid

[futurefields]

The older you get the more you start to realize 2,000 years wasn't that long ago. And 200 years? Man that's nothing. And it is crazy.

200 years is still an eternity for any single human given that the oldest ever confirmed was only 122.

Another of life's revelations brought to you by futurefields.

Yep I feel that I've probably already hit the half way point in life now that I'll be 30 soon. 0-10 felt super long, 10-20, maybe half as long, 20-29 half as long, maybe even faster. I imagine 30-40 will be even faster and so on. It seems time goes by exponentially faster. Next thing you know I'll be 75 on my death bed hooked up to an IV wondering where all the time has gone.

I should probably do something better with my life while I can, instead of the typical work routine.

As the bad guy from Highlander Endgame says, the first century is always the hardest.

Zero to 20 was the longest thing ever, I think because of school. After that, time just flew...college, jobs, marriage, kids, getting fat

 

[PointBreak]

Yep. Weeks used to go by so slow and this past week when by so fast but the wait for The Force Awakens is going by slow.

Have kids. It speeds it up even more.

Blink and they are 9. I remember holding her for the first time, like it was yesterday.

I can imagine. Just watching my nephews grow it's crazy how fast it goes.

I remember the plague in the 1300's like it was yesterday. Then came the Renaissance period which was awesome. But in the beginning of the 18th century with the Enlightenment period was really interesting. Napoleon was fighting in foreign wars and America had its revolution. Then in the 19th century the stupid British started their BS again with America and well, Old Hickory took care of that. The American civil war started, then came the Spanish American War which was started by a ship explosion which we now know to be the ships gun powder hold. After that was the so-called "war to end all wars." And then another war started by Germany once again. Beyond that the Korean war, Vietnam, other small skirmishes, Desert Storm, Bosnian War, Operation Enduring Freedom and, Operation Iraqi Freedom.

Unbelievable how time has moved on... Yeah, I'm a vampire. LOL https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TBDkQc3qS94

So do you ever post anything when you're not stoned?

And if so, do you ever read it and realize just how stupid you sound?
