A New Problem.

Past, Present and Future.

-------------------©---------------------

This is about how I should write about these 3 aspects of time, in terms of their respective content.

I can write this point in the following two ways :

1. Should I write --

Memory is the content of Past, Thought is the content of Present and Future is the content of imagination.

Or,

2. Should I write  --

Past is the content of memory, Present is the content of Thought, and the imagination is the content of Future.

Either way, I have no doubt about what-so-ever I want to say.

The same could be again written / explained in the following way --

There is only the Present. The existence and presence of this Present is an evident truth and reality, no one can ever deny, or even ignore.

The Present is so alive a truth that even if  we don't think about it, it doesn't cease to exist. That is, it is an eternal truth though not a tangible one, as a material object.

In comparison to Present, Past and memory are synonymous with one-another.

In the same way, in comparison to Present, Future and the imagination are synonymous with one-another.

Though Time exists ever as a presence alive, no one can ever transcend this Present.

In comparison again, no one can ever enter Future or Past in the true sense.

We enter the Past if and only if supported by memory.

We enter the Future if and only if supported by imagination.

So, the question is :

Could we ever understand, comprehend or  grasp in whatever possible way, -in its true sense, the thing that we call Present?
