Iguana & Prof

Hey Prof, I've been thinking about whether time is more like a tapestry than a straight road—how we perceive it could shape our experience. What are your thoughts?
Prof
Interesting notion, but I’d argue that time’s not a tapestry in the literal sense; it’s more a linear progression that our consciousness weaves patterns into. The way we interpret moments can change our experience, yet the underlying flow remains. It’s the human mind that dresses it up as a story, not the fabric of reality itself.
Iguana
Sounds like a neat way to think about it—time as the canvas and our minds as the brush. The flow stays, but the picture we see shifts with each thought.
Prof
Indeed, the canvas itself is unchanging, while each brushstroke of thought remolds the picture we see. It’s a subtle dance between the immutable flow of time and the mutable mind.
Iguana
Yeah, it’s like the river keeps flowing while we’re just watching the ripples on its surface.
