Now as we know it

The amount of time it takes for light to hit our eyes or sound to travel to our ears... compounded by stagnant nerve pathways transporting information to our brains... and that organs alacrity at processing information... all contributes to the fact that we never experience now as it actually occurs.

We function in "the lag" between event and comprehension and everything we think we know about the present point in time is assumed in the micro-moment before we ever experience it.

How soon is now? later than you think.
