Becasue its a smaller percentage of your total life, it feels like its going by faster. Its just that in comparison to your whole life, a year keeps becomiing a smaller and smaller part of it.

Am I making any sense?
Yup. It's what I was going to say. Periods of time are relative. A year is shorter to a 50 year old than it is to a 5 year old. To the 50 year old, one year is only 2% of their total life, while a year is 20% of the life of a five year old.
