The question of infinity is based on time that has past and what’s to come. It calls questions like: How does one spend time — in reflection of one’s past or in planning for the future? Which paved road, or dirt path is worth exploring?
There are various aspects of time. Depending on the approach, it may seem more psychological. One part is definite for all of us, it is shown physiologically. No matter how inconsistently time seems to rush or creep by, it always moves forward. No one stops aging from day one. Dying starts after the first breath taken — regardless of our state of mind, or the condition of our body.
Time is progressing at a steady and unchanging rate. It leaves us with the feeling that there is an objective aspect to time itself. That ultimate and absolute path of meaning, we as humans feel compelled to follow and conquer. To find the path, we must first understand that time is infinite and we as individuals are not. But if we begin to think selflessly on questions which involve humanity as a whole … our “time” has then become infinite as well. | JH
