Time and space are like mind and body, and while time is trapped in the body of space, space is stretched out on the rack of time.
Like dreams caught in a dream catcher, so we are told to believe that we are simply spirits caught in the web of a material reality.
Yet even though we strive through our religions to think of ourselves as souls, equal and undivided, we stumble blindly over our own mental constructs, which only ever lead us to categorize and rank ourselves within physical, biological, social, religious, and even financial hierarchies.
While our spirits may all be seen as equal before God, in other words, we always find new and clever ways of seeing our minds and bodies as unequal to each other; and we do this as much with our science as with our religions, and verify it all with our economics and our convictions.
And in the hear and now, we experience a mere moment of an eternity which, like our souls being trapped in flesh and bone, is similarly caught in the spiraling web of time itself.
Or maybe eternity walks around with the present stuck to the sole of its shoe like bubble gum.
Or maybe eternity walks around with the present stuck to the sole of its shoe like bubble gum.
Or maybe time and space are like cancers metastasizing within the infinite and the eternal, like a child being born, or the passing of a gall stone.
