A simple seeker was meditating on the seemingly separate realities of yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
“Or past, present, and future?”
“Yes.”
“Why seemingly separate?”
“You know why.”
“Yes, but do you?”
“Yes. They are continuously and seamlessly woven together.”
“What if I suggested that they each exist within the others, at all times and in all places?”
“I would find that possibility …”
“It’s more than a possibility.”
“Then I would still find it difficult to accept.”
“But not impossible?”
“How can I know what is possible?”
“You could ask me.”
“Yes, but your answer might be designed to test my willingness to accept whatever you might tell me.”
“Yes.”

A simple seeker’s note to herself
Can yesterday, today, and tomorrow, each contain each of the others?
“Yes. It’s necessarily so.”
“How can that be?”
“Yesterday had a tomorrow, which is today. Tomorrow will have a yesterday, which also is today.”
“It seems like a cyclic movement.”
“How so?”
“As the seasons.”
“No.”
“Why?”
“Seasons take turns in a specific order, and are unique in their weather patterns.”
“So, yesterday, today, and tomorrow are just terms we use to describe passing time?”
“Yes.”
