Seeing As Wednesday Sees

We have been treating the universe as matter, and its medium as space—and we have not yet solved the core etiology of our diseases. What if we treat it as light, and its medium as time.

What am I going to have for lunch on Wednesday? From Monday’s perspective, it could be many things. But from Friday’s perspective, it was only one.

From the present, as I OBSERVE the future, it appears to be exploding. (For one Wednesday, there are many possible Fridays.) But as I MOVE TOWARD the future, time is in fact collapsing.

From the present, as I OBSERVE the past, it appears to be condensing. (For many Wednesdays, there is a single Monday.) But as I MOVE TOWARD the past, time is in fact exploding.
