Anyone else noticing how little can be done in an hour? And how fast time moves?

I get it "As you grow older,time seems to move faster... Its brain chemistry",but no... Not like this no...

Everyone has the same experience around me. Regardless of age. I got a slow life... Why does it still move faster than when I had plenty to do? Why if I try to spend some serious amount of work,it doesnt seem to me that it measures against anything meaningful?

I am not much on socials,I really focus on what I think matters to me... No distraction. I value the small things. I enjoy doing things with awareness and consciousness... Yet every hour seems a second,every month a day,every year a month... I cant figure it out.

Is this someone pressing fast forward outside of reality? Is time itself under pressure somehow as in physics?

Ah man!!

Time seems to move faster as we age because
our brains process fewer new experiences,
leading to less vivid memories.

As a result, years blend together,
making them feel shorter compared to the rich,
memorable experiences of childhood.

For a thousand years in thy sight are
but as yesterday when it is past,
and as a watch in the night. Psalm 90:4

But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing,
that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years,
and a thousand years as one day. 2 Peter 3:8

This has been getting attention from MANY people, the fact time seems to be speeding up!

Again I think it's the "DAMN PHONES" lol

When you spend every second glued to a screen 2 hours can feel like 30 minutes.

There are no empty moments nowadays for people to just sit in silence and ponder, every moment has to be FILLED. We don't have the attention spans just to BE, anymore.

I think that's why it moves so fast. But yeah I remember when summers felt like a whole LIFE TIME, seasons used to slowly unfold, winter would slowly transition into spring, but now it seems like just flipping a lightswitch.

How in the hell are we in JUNE already?!
