Hi Mike,
Time doesn't exit, only change. In the change of earth revolving around the sun 75 times, a human can be born, grow to maturity, become strong, decline and finally die. Change.
While the earth is revolving around the sun 75 times, our solar system is moving through space at some unknown seed in some unknown directions, maybe circular. change.
Nothing stay the same, everything is changing within the universe. What would happen if we could freeze the universe. Everything would remain unchanged across the great expanses. Would this mean that time stopped?
Does each previous state of change exist independent of the current state. I do not think so. I believe that only the current state of change exists.
Is it possible to reverse change, moving in the opposite direction of the original change to arrive at a previous state of change. I'm talking about moving the change in the universe back to some previous state, commonly referred to as the past. Is it possible to fast forward change to arrive at some future point of change? I think we are powerless to affect universal change, and it must occur on its own or under some supernatural creator of change.
An atom is in a state of constant change. Although its made mostly of empty space, it appears to us as solid, because it molecules are moving a the speed of light over a very tiny distance, the molocules appear to be everywhere at once. The faster an item move the more space it consumes, at least relative to the state of the observer.
Since everything tends to move in circles, will change move forward to its point of original and begin over again?
