This too is Relative

So the world is a different place right now. A large proportion of the world's population is in lock-down of some form or another. Life might look a whole lot different right now. Something that I have to keep on reminding myself of is that this is relative.

Time really does fly

I was reading something the other day that pointed out that time really does fly the older you get because relatively speaking it is less. Let me explain; when you're 4 years old and a year passes, your life just got longer by a quarter or 25%. Now

Boo Run
