Exploring An Eternal Relationship With Time, In the Season of the Shortest Days
I enjoyed that Nici - good stuff!
Keep in mind though that time only exists as a human perception -
The idea that time may not exist is a controversial topic in physics and philosophy:
Einstein's theory of relativity
Suggests that the universe is a static, four-dimensional block, and that time doesn't flow from past to future.
Quantum mechanics
Assumes time as background, and not an observable.
Loop quantum gravity
Proposes that space and time are made of a network of extremely small chunks, or “loops”, which appears to eliminate time entirely.
Carlo Rovelli
A quantum gravitational researcher who argues that time is merely a function of human perception.
Good one Dad! “Keep in mind though that time only exists as a human perception”. A fine zen parable.
