An Interesting Hypothetical

What if minutes went by like seconds; hours like minutes; days like hours?
Would meaning finally be boiled down into the mere essentials? Would we start to care about things that truly mattered? Would our eyes be opened to a new perspective as a result of this drastically shortened life?

Or would things cease to hold meaning altogether? Would the idea of absurdism take effect? Would everything in life not matter? Would we begin to absorb ourselves in the immediate present and take happiness in the pursuit of death? Would we stop taking happiness for granted?
