Instead of worrying or concentrating on everything wrong in the world, a person is focused on just one item and that is having fun. a good example is a visit to a casino. everything there is upbeat and time really does fly, especially if you are winning.
It seems to. I guess you get so absorbed in whatever brings you pleasure that you just lose track of time and everything else too sometimes (meal times, errands, chores, etc.)
