Time is an Illusion!


Time is an Illusion!

Summary- From what I have found about an explanation of time it was quit interesting. When we think of time it is merely an illusion. So you think that this is nonsense but its not. It is explained from a physicist known as Paul Davies. He was a physicist that was trying to complete Einstein’s conquest to figuring out the illusion of time. He explains that there is only present, because we think of the present and past. We think about the past from the present time now and events that went on at the past. We think of future events from things we’ve encountered from the past or even the present and we make it up. So when a teacher or your boss says this is due on Tuesday it’s just an illusion. We don’t know if that will really be due on Tuesday because there can be other events that occur before that. So when the word excuse comes into play it is saying that the event that kept the illusion of time affect your time of when that assignment is due it is actually fake. So an excuse is just a cover up for a mistake in time. Time is basically a thing that we use to keep organization. Although it can cause chaos or even problems in society it is very much needed. So remember that excuses are actually just a cover up for a mistake in a scheduled event.

Critique- this mostly just my own information I have obtained from some of my searching of information. So when any of my teachers say that’s not an excuse I can say it is merely just a mistake in an event of time. (In other words excuses don’t make any sense).

Impact- It is an illusion but still can exist because we have used it for so long.
