"I have realized that the past and future are real illusions, that they exist in the present, which is what there is and all there is." Alan Watts What a mistake on my part! When I read the name of the author of the quote, I associated him with the electric field. Alan Watts was a British philosopher and expert in religion who had a reputation for self-education. I don't believe in coincidence, but lately, I also came to the same conclusion: there is only the eternal present. Mural by Levi Ponce, design by Peter Moriarty, conceived by Perry Rod.
