But, because our observation platform, our "frame of reference" is not static but ruled by the very forces that we are attempting to observe, we should not expect a symmetrical appearance of that which we observe.
Another analogy: think of the origin of the word "planet". It comes from the fact that our perspective is distorted even in a three dimensional "universe".
When I was very small, someone explained to me that time is not a straight line, but rather a pool.

Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?
From Chicago Transit Authority's very first album which is--wait for it--"Chicago Transit Authority." The group later shortened their band name to "Chicago."
This is the full version with the [commonly omitted] piano intro by Robert Lamm.

I have met people that do not even know what day it is.

Personally, I count those days as evidence of a successful retirement.
