Thanks for the visit.
Feel free to write on the walls.
Or Not... :)

Tonight I stay up late, on the floor, of the little office, listening to programs on theoretical physics, knowing it all matters and none of it matters.

We are travelers in time and space. We live only in the present by force of will exposed from birth to the rip-tides of memory.

Relativity implys time is linear, but vectors in either direction...forward, backward, sideways... no one knows... all that is understood is what we perceive and feel. Quantum Mechanics and Relativity do not agree, so all the kings numbers and all the kings men can not figure out what the truth is in the end.

And it does not matter.

Only Imagination limits Reality.

Only our minds limit how close the past is to the future, and how real our loved and lost are in our hearts.

I've been thinking about this a lot lately. I see time and maybe even space as a more polar/magnetic model in that it seems to stretch out in front of us, but wrap around behind us as well, as some of history, the future and the present's energies all seem to be flowing back through us at times, more or less. It may be no more provable than many things in physics, but I hope that the more visionary among us, artists, dreamers, theologians and scientists, can all continue to work towards a more cohesive understanding than we have now.
Just a thought. :)
