I invite you to read my new essay titled “Structuring the Notion ‘Space-Time’: A General Semantics Conscious Times-binding Approach.”

Present begins here.” “Future—not yet here.” Specific events have passed, but if we do not elementalistically separate events from their effects, we will recognize that the so-called “past” has not all passed: What we now call “the present” are mainly the effects of innumerable ‘passed’ (earlier) events.
