The Past Is Still Happening

Okay, this is yet another strange post from me. Now, I know the title sounds strange in a weird way. Let me explain this. I have a question for you. Do you think the past is still happening? Okay, maybe you don’t understand what I mean, I will explain it better. We are here now, right now at this very moment. But what about the past. it could be yesterday or 20 years ago, it don’t matter. Have you ever thought about the fact that the past, our past, everyone’s past is still unfolding as it actually happened? I have thought about this. That is why I have this post.
For an example, let’s say that yesterday you woke up around 9 am. You had coffee and breakfast and went outside to do some yard work or something. Now fast forward to today, now. You might have done some of the same things, but instead of yard work today you worked online. Now, knowing this, what if what you did yesterday is still happening as it did. Wouldn’t that be wild? I think so. I see it like a film or movie or whatever you want it to be. What was recorded by time is still there, only we cannot view it now. Too bad.
But if we were able to view it, wouldn’t everything we have done be exactly the same as it happened? Yes, I think so. There could be no variations to this. Because it already happened. So, unlike a loop, the time just keeps recording our lives. And if it were film, there would be thousands of spools of film to view. Yes, it would take another lifetime to view it all. I know I don’t think like a normal person sometimes, but this I find interesting. I know if we were able to go back in time we might be able to change some things. But this is not about time travel.
Just thinking about this is strange really. I do believe that the past is still unfolding as it did. But I for one would love to be able to view it. Or at least bits and pieces of it. Especially my past. And if I was able to, I would probably be yelling at myself for being stupid for some things. How do you feel about this topic. Does it sound too odd, too strange or is it something some of you have thought about at some point.

We see it the way we were taught. They are always questioning times space. And always asking the main question, why are we here, where did we come from. Is this life even real or some sort of virtual reality. But you're right, us humans see this life as a straight line.

@sugartoes I don't think it would be that the past meets the future or the present. It is just happening as we live in the now.

@sugartoes I think we are thinking about it two different ways here. I mean whatever happened already is still happening as it did. The present is what it is now. If we were able to go back we would be able to view the past as it was.

Well, what you are saying is exactly what people are saying who have had past life regressions, and are describing their life between lives. Thousands are saying there is no time. All events happen simultaneously. Which means events do not happen in linear space. All things happen all the time at one time. There is no time. So, for all things we do, they are with us and unending in "all time." We cannot perceive this in this dimension (some actually can), but we "get it" when we die. There is actually no "here and there" either. Bends the brain cells, no?

I think you two are in cahoots. I'm positive we still have much to learn and that's just about the only thing I am positive of. I do think linear time is a construct of our ability to perceive it. I get that idea from dreams where everything can happen at once and make perfect sense. Could that be some other part of our being trying to show or teach us? @inertia4 @ThankyouLord

I agree that time does not really exist. Man created a formula to calculate that. Maybe all things are happening all the time around us. I also agree with dimensions. Many of them. We know of a few that do exist, but how many are there really. I still doubt if we will know it all when we die. Although I cannot totally discount that. I do believe that if we were able to go back in time we would be able to view everything that already happened.

@Namelesss I don't know about another part of us trying to teach us. There are dimensions and that has to explain a good amount of this, but not everything. I know we only know the here and now. And that's all good. But there ar things happening around us all the time. There is energy around us all the time. What Tesla discouvered many years ago. That could explain somethings as well. Am I in cahoots with Lynn? I don't think so. But hey, we all have our own view points on things like this.

It sounds like a mind boggling topic. The past is in the present but not in the future. Your present can be in your past and in your future. Your future is your future and someday it will be your past. Someday maybe your future will be your present. Yep, I'm confused.

Let me try and clear this up some if I could. What I mean is that the time that we did live, our past, is still happening as it did when we lived it. So if we were to go back in time, we would be able to view the past exactly as it happened. I hope this clears it up some.

That's interesting. I think 'strange' thoughts, also. That's why it makes for interesting reading ... it's fun to find someone who can make you look at the 'same old thing' ... differently.

@GrannyGee I do believe we have the capabilities to go back and forth through time space. But we don't know about it. Us, the little people. We have to start thinking in a much better way than we do now. I always believed that anything is possible.

@inertia4 Yes, we never know in this day and time what could happen. We've already seen unbelievable things.

@whiteream I just think strange. Or at least what other people consider strange. I like thinking and knowing these things. And there has to be something to them.

@inertia4 You and I could have some amazing talks. I am very much into metaphysics. How about you?

@Namelesss Maybe, I don't know. I doubt that though. I think since time does not really exist, but space does, that the energy is still living and breathing where it was left.

@inertia4 Maybe that's what deja vu is all about.

But what about bad memories. What about people who think that something happened, but it didn't happen the way they remembered it?

Most people have bad memories. This is not about that. What I mean what has happened already is still happening in it's actual time frame. We cannot see it or touch it or even relate to it. But if we were able to go back in time, we would be able to see it all unfold again.
