Rationale

Physics classes everywhere state the fact that every force in the world requires energy to operate and function.

Thus, the abstract concept of time must require copious amounts of energy to run. Moving through the plane of time is something that does not come from within us, as anatomy has yet to find a discreet green organ that can freeze the human body with its disability, and death will not stop a body's progress through time, only subject it to the cold grip of lifelessness.

Therefore, this energy must come from somewhere, but where? What drives us through every second, minute, and hour? It must be massive, as to go against such great amounts of energy, IE Time Travel, is something we haven't yet managed, or even gave any significant amount of energy.

Why do I think of this? Because I recently thought of the concept of a universal tick, or the smallest amount of time for anything to happen, to actually happen.
Imagine a ray of light.
The fastest thing known to man, capable of traveling to the moon and back in about 1.3 seconds. Now, take the smallest distance known to man. An atom, but broken down into hundredths. So small that over a billion cover an invisible spec of dust on your very computer screen. Now imagine smaller.

Then take the amount of time it takes for light to travel that distance. It is at that amount of time that is the universal tick, when present becomes past, and future becomes present. Referring back to a previous post (Epiphany), I now think.

That it is time for bed.
