Try as I might, I can't seem to find this "moment" that people are so fond of mentioning. Nor can I find "time" or "decay". I can only sense the immediacy of experience, and what appears to be motion.

But, maybe I'm missing something....:evilgr in:

The space between thoughts gives you a whisper of eternity. (I got the brown one I think.)

I've come to believe that time is necessary for humans... somehow, the way we're wired up creates this need to process information through past/present/future...

Turn the stick sideways to look at just one point, and THAT is "all time" encompassing...

I just spent five minutes reading all these posts. I wish I could get that time back.

How can you get something back that doesn't exist? When you've got nothing, you have nothing to lose. Help me with this, please.

The OP says time does exist, therefore something which does not exist can be wasted

Default Relative and Absolute

There's the relative and the absolute.

The first exists as a convenient misrepresentation of the second.

Time is a reference point against which we measure ourselves and larger happenings, kind of like temperature and distance. Think of each of our lives as a train ride from Point A to Point B. We don't usually know how far off Point B is but we'll know once we've arrived. Time is the systematic measure or reference to let us know how far or how long it's been since we were at Point A. Anyway, that's my belief, and I'm sticking to it....
