Decisions, Collisions.

Remove the human element. Imagine a time line, and everything moving forward through that time line. Now, things can move through dimensions. Take a step back, leap forward, lay down, or jump up, all these change your position in a physical plain. However, no matter what a person does, it is physically impossible to take a step backwards in time. 

Something I wrote a while ago. I wrote something about the subject, but after further thought, I expanded my hypothesis. 

Assume, for a minute, that what you percieve as the world is false. How do you know that the person in the room next to you is really there? How do you know that you aren't just a random thought floating in space, imagining all of this happening? There is no real way to tell for certain that the person next to you is really there. You could touch them on the arm, but your brain would tell you they're there. You could talk to them, but they might just be figments of your imagination. He, or she, is something you have created with your mind. Not entirely unplausible, if you consider the fact that everything you know is through your own perception.

Assume that you are the center of the universe. Less difficult for some than for others, but for the moment, that is what you are. Everything around you is what you've created with your mind, thus everything around you is merely a memory. 

What happened 5 minutes ago? Think back. Now, what tells you this really happened? Your memory tells you that you you wrote something down. Now, how do you know this really happened? Your memory informs you of what happened. What is recorded in your memory may not be entirely subjective. There may be millions of things that could have happened in the past 5 minutes, but you merely forgot about them. 
Going back, because you may merely be a formless and shapeless thought in space, there may be millions of instances where you remember what else could have happened. 

Confusing? I hardly get it myself. I don't accept it as any kind of hypothesis, as there is absolutely no scientific or mathematical background to nearly any of my thoughts, making most of this blog ramblings of an overcreative teenager, yet everything I write about is perfectly logically plausible. Your brain tells you what you want to know. Therefore, it may be tricking you into what is happening at this precise moment by percieving certain things.
