Timeline 8

How Time Works cont…

Now — let’s pick three years in time to illustrate how every moment of your past, present and future are all occurring simultaneously on THE PRESENT LINE.

In illustration #7 the green vertical vector in the middle represents your present — what you are experiencing right now. The green vertical vector to the left represents a moment in time over 200 years in your past — the exact moment John Hancock begins to sign his name to the Declaration of Independence. The green vertical vector to the right represents a moment in time over 200 years in your future — the exact moment the New Year’s eve ball in Time’s Square reaches the bottom, and let’s presume it’s dead accurate and hits bottom right at 12:00 AM Eastern Standard Time January 1, 2236 AD.

#7

For identification, let’s continue to call your “one and only three-dimensional plane” three-dimensional plane A. THE PRESENT LINE is at point x, which intersects your three-dimensional plane (represented by the red dot) at position 1. Let’s take THE PRESENT LINE down to point y. Hit “play”. Notice: when THE PRESENT LINE was at point y, your three-dimensional plane A was at position 2 in the year 1776 AD. At that moment, John Hancock has just put his pen to the paper and proceeds to sign the Declaration of Independence.

As THE PRESENT LINE proceeds upward to point x, notice that upward motion has brought your three-dimensional plane A through every moment in your past from position 2, forward and unto the moment you are experiencing right now at position 1. Hit “play again”.

As THE PRESENT LINE continues upward to point z, notice that upward motion will bring your three-dimensional plane A through every moment in your future from position 1 to the moment at position 3. And, at that moment, your great, great, great, great, great grandchildren are celebrating News Years day in the year 2236 A.D. Hit “play once more.”
