Are we bounded by Time?
It’s order.
Just prisoner’s
to the end?
Are there beginnings,
real endings,
or is it just
a series of snapshots?
Snapshots
strung together
to show
movement forward.
If we really
know
what forward
actually means.
///////
Does Time slowdown?
Does Time stop?
Pray tell, even move backward
If it’s just
an infinite,
continuous
existence
of events.
///////
Mirrors of the
past … Present … FUTURE
existing
only in “The Now!”#
Yes!
Are we
bounded by Time?
Only Time will tell!?

#Notes on ‘The Now’ Conundrum:
You’re reading this right now.
I don’t know when you’ll read this. I can’t say you read it yesterday or will read it tomorrow. But, for sure, you’re reading it “now.”
That’s how special “now” is. And yet, for all the thoughts and books that’s been devoted to time, science doesn’t consider “now” as really different from the past or the future.
Don’t take my word for it — Mr. Albert Einstein himself struggled with this conundrum.
Philosopher Rudolf Carnap, in 1963, recalled a conversation he had with Einstein about what Einstein called “The Now.” That “The Now” worried him seriously and it means something special to Man, essentially different from the past and future. And he considered this important difference to be outside the realm of science because it cannot occur within physics itself: to him a matter of painful and inevitable resignation.

I think the world would be a better place if everyone got a dose of deep thought once a day to make them stop and think.
