Time

The power in my neighborhood went out a couple nights ago. Last night when I leaned over to set my clock, this string of thoughts hit me. Time is weird.

Everything in our universe is measured by different things. Mainly the spacial dimensions, and then time. The spacial dimensions consist of particles that eventually break down to the different types of quarks. Quarks are what we assume are the building blocks of everything else.

The empty space is made out of something, too. We haven't discovered what that something is, but by looking at how galaxies work, we see that something is out there causing awkward movements of solar systems. I would believe that whatever that something is has a fundamental building block, too. Whether it is in one of the four main spacial dimensions or not has yet to be determined.

Basically, everything has a simplest form. Time doesn't. No matter how much you break it down, there will always be a smaller figure to more accurately describe where you are on the time line.

If you think about that, nothing's position could ever be determined. You may be able to know your position in space, but never in time. Only estimates of that position in space and time.

What all this means, I have no clue. Just an interesting thought I had last night.
