As we look out at the universe, we are looking back in time, because light had to leave distant objects a long time ago, to reach us at the present time.
This means that the events we observe actually lie in our past.
I guess this doesn't sound too radical when we are gazing upon the stars.
But the moment we start looking at our daily lives in this context, This is pretty confounding, we look ahead and walk looking ahead but what we perceive is what took place, in time a few units ago.
It is like looking ahead but perceiving what lies behind.
In our daily lives this does not matter as this is pretty much the manner in which all us human live I mean can we do something about it and change the way we see, I guess we have no option here, we will continue to perceive a future by perceiving the past.
