When Does the Present Happen?

So, when does the present happen?

What’s happening right now? What do you see, hear and feel right now?

As you think about that, realize that all those feelings are now in the past. Even when you’re feeling something right now, think about what those feelings are—biologically. They’re electro-chemical impulses. And remembering them means performing the same electro-chemical reaction... now. (The speed of light is finite rather than instantaneous!)
