Now is eternal, just like you are.

I have read thru this post and I love your answer. All there is is now. The past and future are temporal constructs. When we were in the past -it was the now and as we move into the future, it will become the now. It really is just that simple.

I came to the conclusion that we are always in this time. As in, when you die, you don't stop existing. It's impossible to experience death, because it's impossible to observe not existing. To observe it would mean you still exist, therefore negating the possibility of ceasing to exist. This is a really clumsy explanation, sorry. But basically, I think after you die, you loop back to your beginning and get to do it all again. But I don't think it's just on "instant replay". I think all the choices are available to you again. However, through observation, I think 99% of the time people make the same exact choices again and again ad infinum. When something changes, you experience a deja vu...
