Greetings,
We humans and all of creation for that matter live in something we call TIME. This thing called time had a beginning and will someday have an end. My question therefore is, and I'm not trying to be a smart-alec. How did enough eternity ever get piled up so that it got to be NOW? How does NOW ever come into being? I suppose this is beyond our understanding but is there a proper way of thinking about this? Is it just a mystery and perhaps a prying into things that are beyond our understanding?
If anyone wants to laugh at me, he has my full permission.
