Are you saying that a better way to measure perceived time is something like "1 year, 2 more years, 4 more years, 8 more years," starting from birth, and maybe call each of those increments a "log year"? I like it.

I guess the "natural" base to use to get the "right" number of increments is a pointless exercise, since it ultimately bottoms out in the question of "why is a regular year as long as it is?", but if we assume a base of 2, I'm currently in my 6th log year, and hope to die comfortably into my 7th. Actuarial odds are >80% in my favor.

i don't think time moves faster as we age, i think our perceived duration of early life grows because we keep thinking about it.

for example, i have spent 35 years thinking about the events which took place at age 8, but i have only spent 8 years thinking about the events of age 35.
