POLL: ARE YOU SHOCKED BY THE PASSAGE OF TIME?

I graduated from high school on June 26, 1984. I took a few steps after receiving my diploma and quickly find myself at 55 going to be 56 next month, Lord willing. Are you shocked by the passage of time?

    Very much so. I've got 12 years on you. When you get to this age and speak of "just a few years ago," upon reflection it may have been 30 years ago, and your reality becomes, "Wait! WHAT? 30 years???"

    And then there's that passage from life of family and friends - it seems someone you know has died practically every day. It's then that mortality rears its ugly head and one realizes how it's close to the end so soon, when it seems like so short a time ago you were young, carefree and fearless.

    My little boy turned 18 last Monday. That's just mental because I can still picture him bouncing on my belly on his first Christmas Eve

    Not really, I am shocked on how our country lost its morals.  Soon inflation will hit, as our dollar gets devalued by massive money printing
