In this week's study I learned the following:
1) There is no unity of time.
2) There is no flow of time.
3) There is no present.
Below is my understanding / interpretation of these three facts.

1) There is no unity of time.

• There is not one single time. There are a multitude of times; a different time for every point in space.
• Because all measurements are relative, the measurement of time is relative; both to a particularity and to other times.
• Time is measured according to the rhythm of place and particularity.
• One place and particularity is so different from any other one place and particularity that it precludes any possibility of Perfect
synchronization thus creating multiple truths.

There is no unity of time; only segmented partiality.

2) There is no flow of time.

• Order only exists from a particularity.
• To focus on a particularity, one must blur their vision to discount all other particularities.
• Order is imposed, from cause to effect, according to a particular measure of time.
• If all particularities are taken into account, there is only disorder.
• Entropy is defined as the flow of order into disorder.
• Entropy is an irreversible process.
• Entropy is a succession or progression of particular times from a lone preceding particular time.
• Entropy is ordered (resolved) by choosing a resulting particular time and discounting all other resulting particular times.
• Entropy creates the flow of time.
• Order only exists from a particularity.
• Therefore entropy is not (just or strictly) disorder.
• Entropy is the process from which we create a changed order.
• If all particularities are taken into account, there is only disorder.
• Entropy leads to only one particular measure of time that has in turn led to this moment of changed order, thus creating a past, the impression of a present and a future.
• There is not one single changed order; there are a multitude of changed orders.
• Because time feels ordered, reality is distorted. In Truth reality is the disordered state of all particularities.
• Reality dispels the myth of changed order.
• Reality exposes the flow of time as a myopic man-made construct.

There is no flow of time; only random relativity.

3) There is no present

• Each moment in time has its past and its future.
• Each moment in time is separate and NOT a part of any other moment; nor is it a part of any other moment's past or future.
• Because of this distinct separation, there is no common present.
• Even within a place or particularity, one cannot move toward the present.
• Any attempt to measure the present will either expose a particular past or reveal one or more separated moments in time.

There is no present; only a particular past, a particular future, or distinctly separate moments in time.

In the analysis above I consider a particularity to be an event or happening. As I have worked to digest these facts to better understand time, I have discovered a confluence. If I shift definitions to account for Humanity, (without which time could not be considered), and substitute meanings as follows:

Time = an event, or a particular flow of events.
Particularity = an individual human.
Measurement = a human perspective or perception.

then I come away with a greater depth of understanding for the concept of time, AND I come away with a greater depth of understanding for a reality applicable to our human condition. I crave order and control. I want very much to believe that I am working toward a greater good. I want the world to make sense. But if I actively accept the reality as presented above, must I change my perspective and desire? Have I acknowledged a reality from which there is no hope? No escape? Or have I perhaps strengthened my resolve, allowing me to volitionally apply a more focused effort toward a more refined greater good? If there is no unity, and if there is no flow, and if there is no present, and if the past and the future are only my past and only my future, then that feels like freedom. A freedom to forgive myself for past transgressions. A freedom to move past perceived ignorance. A freedom from debilitating distress. A freedom from burdensome ego. A freedom to define myself, without apologizing. A freedom to work toward a future that includes Humanity. A freedom to work toward a vibrant future that includes a vibrant Humanity. It is not though, a freedom to seek a black hole and purposefully cross the event horizon. Nor is it a freedom to attempt to superimpose a particular measure of time upon random space inhabited by other distinct particularities. To believe that "no escape" is freedom, or to believe that one specific particular measure of time is THE Grain of Truth, is to believe that Humanity does not exist; because within a black hole or at a granular level, Humanity would not exist.

Yet I am surrounded by Humanity. And if I define Humanity as encompassing all (past, locally present, and future) human individuals within our human condition (as recognized above), and I emphasize Human Thought as an integral component of this definition / consideration, and if I acknowledge the elusive nature of Human Thought, and if I weave Humanity (and Human Thought) into the mesh of the space-time continuum, then perhaps I have closed some gaps, (filled some holes, connected some dots, added some elasticity), that will account for a (sort-of) sub-Planck space-time-Humanity continuum that revives and reestablishes an interdependence between Time, Particularity and Place, thereby asserting and validating the existence of Humanity.

In other words, Planck time and Planck length are the smallest measurements with any meaning. Sub-Planck length and time cannot be measured. Human Thought cannot be measured. And from my learning this week, our inability to measure sub-Planck length and time further threatens the existence of Humanity. Yet we know Human Thought is an actuality. So, according to my understanding , to believe in Humanity I must account for sub-Planck length and time. And, (in the absence of more advanced science), to account for sub-Planck length and time I must believe in Humanity. And to believe in myself I must believe in Humanity. And to believe in Humanity I must believe in myself.

That feels like freedom...
...with responsibilities.

I understand that I have made a considerable leap: from the granular nature of nothingness, to a fortified continuum of space, time and Humanity. And herein lies a danger. Our presence within this continuum may in actuality be weakening it, and unless Humanity begins to take seriously its stewardship responsibilities, this continuum may revert to a less complex space-time-Life continuum or even a simpler space-time continuum. I believe space and time are probably just fine with the granular nature of nothingness.

I am not.
