It is a sign of getting old. Not only do the years fly by, but we have to plan the years to come, because we no longer have the ability to be spontaneous.

I have said that to the missus about the years flying by as we can only store a finite amount of info and therefore it is the events that stand out. You don't want to be cluttered with a zillion memories of putting on your shoes or brushing your teeth.
Planning is everything, I do like and try for a bit of spontaneity though. I hope that doesn't entirely go!
I have heard it is age based because of percentage. For an 8 year old, 4 years is half a lifetime. For me, less than a tenth.
I just wing everything and pretend I am spontaneous.
A good way to look at it.
I have been winging for a long time. One day I will get to stop and I might even be relieved :O)
I think it would be a relief for me to stop having to wing it all the time. Just sit on a beach until I get bored - which will be in after about 3 minutes.
Takes me about three weeks to begin to be thinking about being bored on a beach :0D
Would you look like a lobster after that?
After the first ten minutes!
