This week I played with known and expected future events.\u00c2\u00a0 Simple events like watching the alarm clock move from 6:44 to 6:45 and knowing that I must get up and at the same time experiencing that I am standing up.\u00c2\u00a0 The transition a helpful marker of one experience of “now” moving into the past and regrettably no longer accessible (I was still pretty tired).\u00c2\u00a0 The day is filled with many of these seemingly insignificant transitions that punctuate the day and our experience of time.\u00c2\u00a0 Knowing that a future event is imminent seemed to make time more tangible.\u00c2\u00a0 When the event was something pleasant the anticipation made time feel more alive.\u00c2\u00a0 Surprisingly experiencing my dentist appointment transition from a future event to a “now” also added a certain aliveness to my sense of time but I was relieved to let that aliveness die as it slipped into the past. \u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 The most interesting observation from the exercise was an increased sense of flow and movement.\u00c2\u00a0 It seemed more evident that time like space is so much about accommodating presentation and movement.<\/p>\n
