"The irreversibility of time" (...) 264

In the life of "someone" time represents a significant milestone, because it is through this validity of time that is recorded: for example, the birth of "someone" who begins to count as human existence that day of registration of time X and Y time.

These data accompany "a certain person" as the beginning of his life existence of which he enjoys.

In fact it is relevant something that clearly marks this important aspect in the life of "someone", that is why time is determining an indispensable presence.

Such an abstraction (...), this phenomenon which is time, yet we feel its effect, if we take into account that this passage of "someone" over time.

On the contrary, we have repeatedly committed this "gross mistake", saying that for example: that "time has passed" (...), the truth is that we are the ones who pass through it, because it continues its interminable march (...) .

It will suffice to think that at a certain time of our existence, which necessarily had a beginning X that is the first years of life, then adolescence, youth, adulthood and we age.

However, the time that was at the beginning of our existence has always continued, and we accompany it.

At the present juncture, we are aged, respectively with age X, Y and Z, yet living a longevity that propagates in time.

This is how our permanence will inevitably end, as a physical existence, to live a "material life."

What it means to say that we end up as physical existence, because we are organically formed by perishable body-matter, subject to its natural degradation.

Because what is matter, is susceptible to be subject to natural laws, so the organic matter of which the human species is also integral.

We know, however, in addition to having a diverse set of living beings that have a beginning, which is their conception, and inevitably the death of the organism, nevertheless in the course of existence as a living organism, there is growth and reproduction.

But as for the human species, which develops and resembles a living being that is, but with specificity, which naturally makes difference, to have will and reason, because it is rational.

Thus the capacity of the mind allows us to arrive at conclusions after reflection, an exercise of memory from assumptions or premises to have their opinion formed, in which is associated the cause effect, being that human nature is determinant in accepting, submitting Or deny.

This specificity makes of humans the rational being that uses the "greatness of the mind ...", which includes logical reasoning, reason and will, free will.

Indeed, the difference subsists between reason and other forms of consciousness, lies in the underlying fact that thought is so much more rational ... pondered, tolerant and consciously thought, expressed in accessible language, for it is plausible For their evidence.


So our speech in the expectation of leaving bad some considerations on the subject the "irereversibility of time". António Cardoso
