RE: My thoughts on time. Is time just an illusion of our consciousness? Please read it and give me your opinion :-)

Great post, @monkeydnima! I like your description of mindfulness and being in the here and now.

I think you might find it interesting that there's good evidence to support that our perception of time changes and actually speeds up as we age!

      Sure thing! You can obtain the full text for the study for free at the link below. I believe a sample of 499 participants aging from 14-94 years old were presented a questionnaire with questions about their perception of time.
