Passing Time Running Amok

These days, each of these days passes by so quickly. All attempts to slow the process fail. It sometimes feels like driving a speeding car with no brakes. The marathon of much younger days has become a sprint. But the finish is still out of sight. .... and when did we seemingly lose all control? Occasionally I'll get caught up in literally noting each second as it ticks away and just want to scream for it to stop! It amazes and frightens as you observe each second transition from the present to the past. You think to yourself that it's gone and will never return. And before you complete the thought, another instant has passed ..... and another .... and another!! You can become overwhelmed and obssessed with it all if you watch and consider the repeating sequence for too long
