As far as the universe is concerned, you're 13 billion years away from being born and it's already 200 billion years after you died. Think of the words on a page. We read them, experience them, starting on the top left of the page, one at a time, before finally ending at the very bottom right. But all those words were printed at once -- they all appeared at the very same time. One didn't come before the other. >, but there isn't a time.

We humans experience linear time. A photon does not. We say that photon can become "Entangled" but that means there's no time or space between them. To us they can be million of miles apart but it's just our perspective. It's not wrong but it's not the only one. -- https://jtem.tumblr.com/tagged/The%20Book%20of%20JTEM/page/5
