why can't then be now?

… and no where near now is so much closer to now than it’s been, way back then, when it was no where near now, and yet now is not now, but I agree, now is most definitely more almost now than it has ever been

Because now is then and then is now. :flower

When you get to now it becomes then, you know, if we could only step backwards in time we could relive all our thens, and we would never look back only FORWARD.
When I get to then I want to be in the now and when I get to the now I want to be in the then…

So for now, I mean then, I want to live in the now and speak fondly of the thens.

Why cant then be now?

time is a development of mankind
essesnce of the ‘now’ is attainable at any point
concentrate on existing not in the ‘then’
but rather existing through the ‘then’
and the ‘then’ becomes the ‘now’

excersize…
start by counting your bones
and focusing on every sensory input
then see through the figment of time
place your self right in the cradle of the essence
isn’t ‘then’ happenning right now?

Well put :thumbsup That’s some deep stuff…I’ll try it when I get there, concentration is so much better at 9000ft

with the final pack going in the car it seems like then is so much closer to now than it has ever been yet still so close to then rather than now. tho being in the now for then sure makes it seem like now instead of then. no matter. then will be more now in just a few hours than it is now.
