Several people have commented this week that time is passing by too quickly.
I agree, it has seemed that way for quite a while to me.

My dad used to explain it mathematically:
When you are ten, one year is one tenth of your life! 
Rather a large percentage.
However, when you are sixty, a year is one sixtieth of your life,
A much, much smaller fraction; 
therefore, time has picked up speed!

I think my dad was a very wise man,
if not a little wacky too.
So, I guess I come by it naturally.
Thanks, Dad, I miss you.

Peace, B

PS: I find that walking along the shore
slows down the passage of time considerably! 
I highly recommend it.

An interesting observation and a touching tribute. He must have been a wonderful man.
