Okay, hear me out. We experience the world in, through our perception. We can argue that there is a world out of our perception. Like I think Kierkegaard would say the world in itself, the nominal world, if it wasn't him, I'm sorry, Kierkegaard, I don't think it was him.
I'm not sure. Anyways, we can argue there's a world outside of our perception, but we might never be able to experience it. We will never be able to experience it because by definition experiencing something means we, it happens through our senses in our perception. So the world, whether the world exists, whether there are things that are there, but we will never be able to perceive that objects as we perceive them aren't the whole object that exists.
It's just the object filtered down through our perceptions. We can, we can say that, but then let's talk about time. We do not experience time linearly. I'm going to start with that.
I'm not going to start with time isn't linear. I'm going to start with we don't experience time linearly. How? Well, when you're little, a week of school is absolutely nothing like a week of life, like just a normal week when you're like 60.
When you're 60 a year might pass as fast as a month passed when you were five, maybe even faster. When you're watching a movie, a really, really good movie or playing a very, very good video game or even just running or doing exercise. When you're doing something that you really like that sucks you in, time seems to pass by faster. We experience time in a different way when you're talking to someone that you really enjoy the company of, for example.
And when you do something really boring or something that you hate or you're not in a good mood and you're in a class and it's just going by so slowly, we experience time very slowly. We experience time as something that just drags on and on and on. So I don't think I, anyone would disagree with if I say that we do not experience time linearly because forget, forget to be in track of time. Forget that we have the sun or watches to keep track of time.
If you had no idea, imagine just it was day all the time or you were in a, you were in a room in a giant, giant room, always lit. Always lit no matter what. You didn't have anyone else. You were just in that room.
You could do whatever. If you were to watch a movie in that room that you really enjoyed and then have to sit through something boring, time would just not, you wouldn't be able to tell how time passes even if you had a clock, you would feel that time would be very, would pass by very quickly when you did something even joy and very slowly when you did something you didn't like. I might be wrong but I feel like that's an argument I could make that mostly a lot of people would agree with then. We have a system in place to keep track of time in a linear way with numbers and there's a set.
It just, it happens and no matter if you're bored or if you're enjoying something, if you look at a clock that's set to the time that everyone uses, you're able to keep track of time. Well, if time as we experience it is not linear, then how can we prove that time itself is linear? Now I don't know if that makes any sense but basically what I'm trying to say is I don't think, I don't think time is really a thing. I think we need time to organize our lives and we need time for society to exist.
I mean, humancy pattern, we see the sunrise and we see the sunset and we make a pattern out of it. But since we, I can easily argue that the world as it exists, the world can only be perceived by us. It can only be filtered through our perceptions. Therefore, we can't go beyond that.
In time, if we don't experience it in a linear way, how can we say that time is linear? How? I know that the thing is I feel that time pass is faster now that I'm older than when I was when I was 10. But even though I know that the, I think here's how I'm going to say it, I think the amount of time that a second is in a systematical way.
It hasn't changed since I was 10. A second is the same amount of time that it was when I was 18 on the like mathematical scale. However, the way I experienced time as a whole has changed radically. And that's my perception.
So I don't think, even if there was such a thing as time outside of my perception, that was linear and was always kind of going. Even if that was true, the way I interpret that through my perception is nonlinear. So I don't think that if time exists, it would be linear because I have no proof of it. I can point out a clock and watch the seconds go by and see that it never changes the amount of time between each second never changes.
But even then I would get extremely bored at some point and feel like time goes slower and slower and slower and slower and slower. And imagine someone would enjoy that activity. They would feel that time passes by quickly. But my point is it just shows that the way we experience time isn't linear.
So I don't see proof to say that time isn't in here because the world as we live in it, we can only filter it through our perceptions. And even if there's proof of something outside of our MPP myself. I don't know if that made much sense. I feel like I've been going in circles and going to have to talk about it again once I can explain it more in depth.
But anyways, thank you. Thanks for listening and have a great day.
