The cosmos are set on their own path, maybe on their own conical spiral and perhaps ours simply rides their conveyor belt, but everything is born at the vertex of the spiral. before i deviate into other sub-theories, this path could very well represent our lives. when we are young time is overwhelming for us. We cycle thru much quicker in our beginning of time than near our end. For an extreme example, to a new born baby, or even a toddler, one hour is worth much more of their currently existed life time, proportionally, than to my grandpa; (which is why you shouldn't put toddlers in time-out for too long lol).
