Every one is talking about PRESENT, but I say there is no present.What has passed is PAST what to come is FUTURE,then where is PRESENT? If you follow the time line, what has crossed the line is past and what has to cross is future then where is present, can any body explain me I am lost.:(

For atleast a nano second we do live in the present and then it becomes past.If there is no present then whats the point in saying there is past.Present is the most important link btw past and future.Its pointless denying the present.Ez, you asked us to follow a timeline ie. what has crossed the line is past and what has to cross is future.The answer you are looking for is there in your question itself.When you cross the line of the past you reach a point which is before future.You are not jumping straight to future from past.You do halt for a sec.There lies your present...

According to Einstein there is no general 'present'. Everything has four coordinates, three in space, and one in time. This 'place' or 'present' is occupied by this single entity. In order to 'experience' this entity one needs information about it, which can be gathered at the most at the speed of light. Even if you think you see something 'right now', it is already in the past, because the light that tells you through its reflected beams about something needs 'time' to reach your eyes.

moves into present and so quickly becomes the past

look to the time as a thread with a start and an end and you are scrolling along that thread moving in one direction towards the end with no chance to scroll back ..

just lost in the past not knowing what is coming in the future ...

I do believe someone is trying to be philosophic here. She means that in the instant the present passes it become the past.

What you have typed is past, what you will is future,then where is present,take the time line, as micro-micro-micro second, then again what passed is past and what to come is futur.:(

What you are experiencing right now is present...what’s happening with you today is present.

Don’t dwell in the past or worry about your future ...live for today! You never know what will happen tomorrow...
