"Why does the return journey feel quicker?" posted on IrishTimes.com was a very interesting article which hooked me right from the start. While the information presented in the article is theoretical, it still fascinated me by expressing the complicated process of forming memory timing. The article goes on loquaciously describing the way our minds perceive the passage of time through our memories; expressing the relationship between attention the recollection of time. Apparently, the less complex an attention-grabbing the distraction is, the longer we remember dealing with it. Giving rise to the old adage, "a watched pot never boils". The conclusion of the article takes on a "Carpe Diem" tone and expresses that life can feel longer and fuller by filling it with learning experiences. Having a boring, routine life will make it seem to go by quickly.
