It is your perception which creates the lens of space/time
Space and Time
"“Being “present” is not so much about trying to stay present in the moment, as it is about having gratitude in the moment, so you do not desire to be anywhere other than this moment.” -The Time Travelers
The idea of being bound by the constrains or freedoms of time is pervasive in our lives. Too much, too little, my time, your time, on time, out of time, time, time, time. We have projected time as an environmental factor which is apart from us, something for us to possess, manipulate or control. Within the stream of time, we navigate its currents, sometimes masterfully and other times we feel like we’re fighting against its currents, living in a fleeting moment which always recedes into the next and reaching for a moment which never comes. What if we viewed time as an extension of who we are, as the part of ourselves which moves us into creation, which pushes us to move into a new perception of reality where we have projected ourselves and where we wait to meet ourselves in a distant moment, fleeting but real?"
…
“This idea of time is like freezing reality in a picture in every moment, defining all which is in the prevue of our observation, shaping the illusion of an end result to our creation, to the flow of our intentions, God, frozen into an image which we can capture and take in, which we can own and hold onto, which stays with us, if only for a moment, so we can feel like we are with it and we are not alone, drifting in a universe without form, without beginning and end, without purpose, where we feel incomplete. And so, letting go of time is letting go of the need to hold onto the never-ending moment.”

“THOUGH YOU PERCEIVE YOUR REALITY THROUGH THIS IDEA OF TIME, THE TRUTH IS A TOTALLY DIFFERENT STORY. WE LIVE IN A WORLD WERE HAVING TO EXPERIENCE REALITY IS SUBJECT TO OUR AWARENESS BEING IDENTIFIED WITH OUR BODIES. BECAUSE YOU HAVE PROJECTED YOURSELF INTO THIS DETERMINISTIC REALM, YOUR PERCEPTIONS ARE DICTATED BY ITS RULES. WITHOUT TIME HOLDING THIS REALM TOGETHER, EVERYTHING WITHIN IT WOULD MORPH INTO A FORMLESS ENERGETIC INTENTION. THAT INTENTION MAKES EVERY PHYSICAL THING IN YOUR EXPERIENCE. YOU PLAY OUT THIS INTENTION WITHIN TIME BUT MANY MORE REALITIES EXIST WHICH YOU REALLY ARE NOT AWARE OF. REALLY, TIME IS ONLY ONE EXPRESSION OF THIS INTENTION.
TO BRING YOUR AWARENESS TO THESE OTHER POSSIBLE REALITIES, SIMPLY LOVE ALL YOU ARE REFLECTING INTO YOUR REALITY, MAKING IS A PART OF WHO YOU ARE; BRINGING WHAT YOU MADE SEPARATE TOGETHER. THIS WILL INTEGRATE YOUR EXPERIENCE SO THAT YOU SURRENDER YOUR IDENTITY, AND YOU BECOME YOUR EXPERIENCE.
THAT IS HOW I LIVE.

“So, letting go of how you identify yourself in relation to everything else is how you can move beyond a mind which perceives everything as separate from you and which needs to then identify where you are in space and time. Why would we need space/time at all if we were not looking for a way to define where we were in relation to everything else? To define ourselves, our position, in comparison to our experience/ universe? And so, the more focus we put on our identity, the more gravity we build into space\time, the more we are anchored into this perception of reality and the more energy we expend on creating enough mass (presence) in order to pull to us what we need.
And so, you situate yourself within a coordinate in space/time; that is your identity. Like any object within space/time you have gravity and you are also susceptible to the gravity of other objects. The more mass you have, the more gravity you exert and the more influence you yield within your immediate environment. So, it is logical for you to do a few things. First, you will situate yourself within an environment in space/time which you are not too far from what you wish to influence; this is where you will start building your identity. Then you will need as much mass as possible in order for you to have the greatest influence you can on everything else in your environment. To do this you start pulling everything you can towards you and make it part of you. This means with every experience the goal is not to experience, but the goal is to take action which will draw to you that which you can make a part of yourself, that which will strengthen your opinions, positions and sense of identity which you have created. Next you will only look for things which will strengthen your position/ identity and so this is all you will engage with; all you will experience. Once you make something a part of yourself, you are stronger, you have more weight but you also are expending more energy holding onto that part you have drawn to you. Should you lose that part which you have drawn to you, you feel as though you have lost a part of yourself and you feel weaker and less able to pull other parts towards you. A lot of energy is also spent resisting/ repelling the forces of gravity from other factors in your environment which also have mass.
This is life in space/time. A tug of war between who you’ve made yourself to be, through your life experiences and who you want to be, based on the same life experiences. So, in space/time we obsess about bringing more into an identity which is never enough, which never feels complete, which is always in lack. Of course, it makes sense that through this lens of space/time we always feel in lack, as we are defining ourselves as separate from everything which, in our most unified state of awareness, there is no boundary between “everything” and “us”. We are in fact the perceivable and unperceivable universe, expanding and contracting, like a universal heartbeat. We are life and death. We are the seasons. We are the sun and also the most distant stars. We are love. We are poetry. We are suffering. We are peace and bliss. We are light and darkness. We are one with everything.”
