Time, see what's Become of Thee

Some interesting quotes on time:

"Time is not at all what it seems.  It does not flow in only one direction, and the future exists simultaneously with the past" - Albert Einstein

"Time is what prevents everything from happening at once" - John Wheeler 

"Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so." - Douglas Adams

"Love vanquishes time. To lovers, a moment can be eternity, eternity can be the tick of a clock." - Mary Parrish

"Come out of the circle of time, And into the circle of love." - Rumi

"Time is a circus, always packing up and moving away." Ben Hecht 

    We used to thing of time as being something real and distinct.  Then Einstein explained that time and space are not separate things but part of one called space-time.  Now quantum mechanics tells us space and matter aren't "real" in the sense that we think of as real, but the physical universe is just a very complex hologram.  So if space is essentially an illusion, what does that do to Einstein's space-time? 
    If space is a hologram then so is time.  Time is just a convenient way to measure change in the physical universe.  Outside of that hologram, in the spiritual universe, there is no change and no time.
    While time may be an illusion, and the past, present and future all exist,  most of us can see only the present clearly.  The past that we think we remember well, becomes murky when someone starts asking for details about something that happened years ago.  The future is probably even more murky because details are probably not fixed yet.  That is why even the best seers and psychics only give general ideas about the future, with occasionally just a few details.  Skeptics think this is proof that they are frauds.  While some psychics are frauds, the fact that their visions of the future are somewhat blurry does not prove they are fakes.
