Getting a response such as yours makes every second of writing worth the effort! Your last paragraph is the one that really makes me ponder. Energy, neither created nor destroyed but somehow included in the block of time... I need to digest this.
The point you make about observing ourselves - is this perhaps akin to the Astral plane?
Something I didn't even get into is the whole multiverse concept. Many blocks??? You might like the second article I just published about time (https://medium.com/counterarts/how-billionaires-manage-our-time-e4f33f9b7449 ) and an older one "Finding Miracles in Soap Bubbles." https://medium.com/counterarts/finding-miracles-in-soap-bubbles-340ad6b349c0
Again, than you so much for taking the "time" to read and respond to my wandering little missive. You made my day.
Best,
Matty
