Momentum= mass X velocity. As we grow older by each day, the momentum of our lives simply increases. Firstly and obviously, it's because our mass (ie: weight) increases. And of course going by the equation, and as we learn how to crawl, then walk with some help and finally walk, the velocity at which we travel and move from place to place simply increases. And so, logically, the momentum of our lives increases. But one often wonders; does the momentum increases after puberty? There shouldn't be any much increase in mass since growth is more or less constant and the speed at which we move about do not differ as much as well; unless we are sprinting. However, truth of the matter is that the momentum simply gets greater throughout our lives; from pre-school till primary and secondary school and then through JC and university and finally, to the working world and maybe decreases when one retires. The reason? The mass of our workload increases and we are expected and have to move faster to catch up with our work. No one is going to stop and pause and wait for anyone to catch up and rest. And thanks to the advaced technology, our pace of lives accelerates.(Ironically, it is the same technology that allow me to write about it). Anyway, it is without a shadow of doubt that life will be busier after prelims. There is nothing I can do to stay and hide away from it; all I can do is to rise up to that challenge and conquer it. Someone once said :" What does not kill you makes you stronger." I hope I can be a stronger person after the "A" Levels.
