Sep. 11, 2008 - A Wondering

Last night as my dad prayed with us before we went to bed and he prayed that we would live everyday the way Christ would want us to live, because we don't know when our last day is.

He was thinking of 9/11/01. He talked about how he couldn't believe how time had flown.  All of that set me to wondering what the phrase (time has flown) means to people. Does it mean that life is going too fast for their liking, or does it simply mean that the years have gone by and they have enjoyed it.

Just curious.

You know I was just thinkng that same thing, 9-11 doesn't seem like it was long ago. But in answer to your question, for me at least, when refering to the saying "times flown by" I mean time is going by faster then I'd like.

You know, my friends and I were also talking yesterday about how 'time has flown' since 9/11. I guess when I use that phrase, I usually mean that time has gone by really fast, I've (usually) enjoyed it a lot, and it doesn't feel like it has been that long since _____. If I don't enjoy something, then time usually goes by really slowly...
