especially when you start to age, you want time to slow down.

if for some bizarre reason you *couldn't wait* to turn 50,
another way to say it is, having too much time makes it slower, and having too little makes it faster. when you're a kid you have nothing to do; when you're an adult you have too much to do.

I'd agree with only one of three points, and I'd guess I'm older than most on these forums.

I look forward to every day, always new stuff (or recaps of old stuff) to enjoy.

I'm 71, and I have to say my second half-century so far is much better than the first. Maybe I should hush, my peers agree, but that seems to be a well-kept secret.

I don't know about too much to do. Since I'm retired, I can choose worthwhile things to do. A little wrenching at the garage next door helping folks with their cars, a little teaching at the university, a little golf, martial arts tournaments, cooking, flying lessons, video games, movies and music, woodworking, gardening, sewing, shopping, family and friends. Time never drags, and first-of-the-month bills seem to come too often, but I can't say that time flies either.
