Doppler
I should be in bed right now, but I am not. I don’t want to go to bed. I want to stay up all night and sleep all day tomorrow. I don’t know why. Just like I want to blog right now, but no idea about what.
Has anyone ever noticed that the old you get the faster time seems to pass? I have been aware of this sensation for a long time. I have noticed that it has gotten a lot worse since I started working. It gets harder and harder for one day to stand out from all the others.
Life rushes on and seems to not move at the same time. I wonder if anyone else knows what that statement means.
Sis’s birthday was today so Mom is coming up this weekend to spend time with us. It being Sis’s birthday I got talked in to stuff I would not normally do. Mom is going to come to church Sunday which will be the first time she has come to my church. I think she will like it. I will be there for both services, but I am not sure which Mom and Sis are coming to, but they said they are coming to one of them. I am excited about it.
I guess I have rambled on enough. Time for bed I guess.
I think I know what you mean…at least from my perspective. I think the same thing sometimes. It seems like the world is buzzing and moving on around me so fast, and all I can feel is that I’m standing still in the middle of it all, watching it pass by. May not be the same thing you are meaning by that statement, but thought I’d give my perspective for what it’s worth
Always enjoy added perspective, and love it when someone does not think I am a complete nut.
I’ve known you for years and not once have I thought you were a complete nut. Maybe a partial one
Haha j/k. You’re far from crazy.
“Life rushes on and seems to not move at the same time. I wonder if anyone else knows what that statement means.”
Yes. Anymore I can look back and not only do days melt into eachother, whole weeks can morph into big blobs unseperated time.
Work, it makes life menotinous.
I think that’s because I pretty well know what will happen at work every day within some realm of normalcy.
It seems like in college every day was different and could be seperated finitely.
The difference I believe is that when you’re in college you have the mindset that you can do anything, and you’re still on the journey to starting your life.
Once you start clocking in at the same job, at the same time, for a couple years you realize, “this” is the life you worked so hard to get. You’ve made it to one of the major destinations on your life journey.
What’s next?
