Time is relative. It's an expression we use over and over. The expression has truth behind it.
There are days that seem to drag on and on and then there are days that disappear in a flash.
I'm sure the pace of time is connected to our mood. Certainly one person's runaway day does not correspond to another person's perception of time.
Now I'm no scientist but I'm thinking there's a mountain of money to be made in there someplace. If someone were to identify the hormone, gene, chemical, or whatever that controls mood then that someone could sell time in a bottle. (They could also rake in the cash as a marriage counselor.)
Totally enjoying a day so much that it's flying by but you'd rather it didn't? Ingest just enough day lengthening time elixir to make it seem the day is lingering a little longer.
Conversely, if you're having a bad day, ingest a whole sloshing gallon of day shortener and make the waking nightmare disappear in a flash.
Maybe I should have paid a little more attention in biology and chemistry classes.
