Eli5: Why did a day feel forever at age 10, but now at 25 it feels like 2 hours?
In: Biology
Our sense of time is relative. 1 day at 5 y.o. is ~0.05% of your life, but at 10 it is ~0.027% and at 25 it is 0.01%. A day is less and less time. I always hear the analogy of a drop of water. It is significant in a spoonful of water, noticeable in a bucket of water, inconsequential in a pool of water and unnoticeable in an ocean of water.
