David Falkayn And Space-Time

Mirkheim, I.

David Falkayn reflects that:

"...We move through a single space-time on our single tracks..." (p. 32)

- but we don't.

A track is a path that we move along. The track existed before we started to move along it and will continue to exist after we have ceased to move along it. At every moment, the entire track exists while we are at only one point on it, a different point at every moment. Your world-line is not such a track. It is simply you existing at every moment from your birth to your death. At any one moment, you exist in that moment, not at any other. You exist equally at every moment. No part of you moves between them.

We both extend and move through space. Unlike extension, motion takes time. We endure through time but do not move through it. If we did, then that motion would take time, a second temporal dimension and the beginning of an infinite regress.
