Present resembles the sharp point of a recording laser or needle, unlike the present, the past and future
are measurable durations of time. Past historical events are in our memory just like recorded material is on
tape, CD or DVD. This similarity suggests that past is just like a record in memory, while future is like an
unrecorded tape. Future may just be a projection created by our mind from our past experiences stored in our
memory. The fact that the most real feeling of time "the present" is not measurable while the past and the future
which are not accessible can be measured strongly suggests that the way we perceive time is an illusion.

Medir o tempo presente
não faz sentido nenhum,
pois não há processo algum
de lhe travar a corrente!
