What I'm gettin at here is..
I don't
understand how anyone
can travel into the future if
it hasn't even happen yet...
not even a second beyond now?

In other words,
there exist a
precise second
that is independent
of all your seconds..
a universal second.

And nothing exist
beyond that
universal second
because..
it hasn't happen yet.

It takes
a lot of
happenings
to complete
a Now, even
though it is
never completed.

The undeveloped
film in the camera
is still running...


I can see the future..and it isn't there.
