THE MISTS OF TIME

When a man looks in a mirror does time flow backward when reflected by the mirror?  So, some images are mirrored, while others, like time, are not mirrored.  Time knows no mirrors.  Time can not be reflected by any means.  Without time all of physics would be completely impossible, yet none of physics captures time in any way, squirrels it away in an equation or formula.  The smallest theoretical measurement of time, the tiniest tick of the clock, is Planck time, 10-43 seconds.  There exists no means in physics to break time down into smaller increments, into true infinitesimals.  This alone by itself without anything else proves human thought is perfectly disconnected from physics.  If mind were perfectly connected to physics it would be impossible to think of infinitesimals, it would literally be impossible to imagine Planck time divided into an infinite number of units.  This is the basis for the theory of the infinite realm of abstractions.  To say 10-∞ is perhaps mathematically allowed but physically 10-∞ is nonsense, is not allowed due to the Planck constants, due to a minimum assignable scale to a quantum of action which, clearly, must be physical, not merely mathematical.  A photon is at the very edge of physicality because it is massless, the jury is still out on the neutrino.  The photon has a temporal duality:  (1) it is the yardstick of time, and (2) it does not experience time.  Even if a photon travels 10 billion light years, from the perspective of the photon not a single Planck second has passed, not a single Planck distance has been traversed.  “From a photon’s point of view, it is emitted and then instantaneously reabsorbed.”  [phys.org].  This is “true” for a photon which “from our point of view has traveled for over 13 billion years.”  Our temporal point of view is possible because we are more than photons, we are mass and photons.  If the photon is instantaneously absorbed, it could be said this action is faster than the minimum Planck time.  No time whatsoever expires.  There is no entropy, no loss or gain is possible due to the instantaneous nature of the action.  Neither space nor time can be affected, although the photon is said to have “relativistic momentum.”  It is observed to propagate through space and time in one direction.  Not until it is reabsorbed can it change direction.  If there were no mass there could be no photons because mass is a requirement for photon emission.  No photon can emit itself from itself.  On the other hand, it seems mass is incapable of not emitting photons.  The photons in space and time are free of mass for a duration the photons do not experience but everything else experiences a duration.  If the universe is in balance then duration must also be in balance.  If the photon is evidence of the shortest duration, of an infinitesimally small duration when it is emitted and instantaneously reabsorbed then a similar rule could apply to mass inasmuch the duration of mass is the opposite, the symmetrical counterpart of instantaneity:  a single tick of the clock which lasts an eternity.  Mass is not absorbed or emitted, it always exists, although E = mc2 does apply but this consumes but the tiniest portion of mass.  An out of balance, symmetry broken condition would exist if photons are emitted and reabsorbed instantaneously and mass was in existence less than eternity.  If symmetry is not broken, the counterbalance to zero time, instantaneity, is infinite time, eternity.
