Default Circular Time

Well we think of time as something that is linear. One end of its
spectrum goes back to the moment of the big bang,and then up to "now"
and on to the distance future. How could we ever view time different
than that? Then I remember Greek thoughts on this. In their
spacetime(ancient) they thought time was "circular" Reality is they
thought that every event repeated endlessly in a series of cosmic
cycles. They must of thought of things like another Trojan war,and more
than just one Socrates drinking down another brew of hemlock. Best to
think our saying "history repeats itself" from Greek ancient thinking.
I wish time could curve as to make a circle,for that would mean that
becoming older(like this old man) must simultaneously be getting younger
Well I've posted the end of one cycle that ends a universe is the
beginning cycle of a universe coming to be. Kind of sad one universe
has to be squeezed to death to make room for the new universe. Maybe
the ultimate act of humankind is to interfere with this action? Could
we reverse entropy? TreBert
