Nigeria In Time By Favour Benyin
I have a firm belief that the past, present and future all exist at the same time and this is why.
Imagine that time is a planet and the past, present and future are three major continents on it. These ‘continents’ are places existing all at once. Then again, there are physical ‘objects’ which live on ‘planet time’ such as you and I, plants and animals.
Understanding how the ‘past, present and future’ relate with and affect each other; and how ‘objects’ are affected by their actions on ‘planet time’ is important to create a brighter future for Nigeria.
I dare to kindly ask anyone skeptical of this theory:
‘If the past, present and future do not exist at the same time, IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE PRESENT IS WHAT? IS IT THE PAST OR THE FUTURE?’
