When I took acid as a teenager in the 90s, I was tripping balls and realized that entertainment or anything that occupies that mind that we enjoy, in essence makes time seemingly go by faster. Therefor, the more you entertain your brain, the quicker you approach your demise. It really groundbreaking for me at the time. I swore I might just stare at a clock for the rest of my days just to make time seemingly like it passes slower to savor my mortality lol
Memory is a funny thing. If you don’t fill your days with stimulation, the day drags on. But when you look back on that time, you find that you’re not forming many new memories, so the perceived time is shorter. The days get longer and the years get shorter.
Life is often shorter than we’d like, it seems a shame not to try and fill it with new experiences
