Our perception of time is shaped by our experiences from "summary" of Time and Free Will (Annotated Edition) by Henri Bergson
Our perception of time is not something fixed or universal. It is deeply influenced by our individual experiences in life. Each person's perception of time is unique, shaped by the events they have lived through and the emotions they have felt. As we go through life, we encounter a variety of situations that affect how we perceive time. For example, time may seem to drag on when we are bored or anxious, while it can fly by when we are engaged in activities that bring us joy and fulfillment. Our experiences of waiting, anticipating, and reminiscing all contribute to our understanding of time. Moreover, our memories play a crucial role in shaping our perception of time. The way we remember past events can influence how we view the passage of time. Some memories may feel like they happened just yesterday, while others may seem distant and faded. These memories create a sort of timeline in our minds, which can warp and stretch our perception of time. Our cultural background and personal beliefs also play a role in shaping how we perceive time. Different cultures have varying concepts of time, with some placing more emphasis on the present moment while others focus on the past or future. Our beliefs about the nature of time and existence can color our perception, leading us to experience time in different ways.- Our perception of time is a complex and multifaceted phenomenon that is deeply intertwined with our personal experiences. It is not a fixed or objective concept but rather a fluid and subjective experience that is constantly shifting and evolving. By understanding the various factors that shape our perception of time, we can gain insight into our own unique relationship with this fundamental aspect of human existence.
