Past, Present, Future

      
The future does not yet exist, therefore it does not exist.

The past no longer exists, therefore it does not exist.

The present is an infinitely small instant that is ever-changing, passing from moment to moment, therefore it does not exist in any manner which can be statically defined and described.

So the passage of time is meaningless, and only our perception of the immediate instant is useful, but as soon as we perceive it, it is gone.

  1. Time is relative. It only exist in the sense that humans need some form of linearity.
