The Arrow of Time


Anybody who has been seriously engaged is scientific work of any kind realizes that over the entrance to the gates of the temple of science are written the words: 'Ye must have faith.'
Max Planck


     The Arrow of Time is a term used to describe the ever-constant, seemingly forward motion of time. It's hard to comprehend Einstein's relative concept of time, dependent on motion, massive objects, gravity etc. but the truth of the matter is that time is different for you than it is for me. Time is different for everyone. We like to think that we all have the same experience of time but it is actually time itself that is fixed.
     We tend to think that it is time that's moving forward but in reality it is we that move forward through time. Every possibility, everything that has ever been or ever will be, is contained within the frozen stream of energy we call time. Our awareness of it, our present moment, moves through time and space and where we end up is entirely up to us. Where we hold our minds is where the river will "take" us and there is no thing that is impossible.
      Everything we want has already been written within the fabric of the space-time continuum. There is no need for us to "create" it. The only question, the doubt that plagues the mind, is whether or not we can "hold" our minds long enough to "arrive" at that which we call our wildest dreams.


Happy 11-11-11 !!
