I’ve always thought that was true. That time does not flow, but rather we flow through time. The past and the future are real and have always existed, but our consciousness limits us to experiencing only the present. It’s one of the conditions of being alive that we are limited in that way.

This is interesting. I hadn't thought of time in this way, but I can understand the concept. Almost like time is a tunnel through which we pass. Thanks.
