If we think of all Time as an ocean where all "moments" are like individual water molecules, then living any moment (any *possible* moment) is only a matter of putting yourself physically in the right place of the time ocean. Each adjoining moment is related to other so by hopping from related moment to the next you create line the forms what we individually perceive as a time line. Exactly which moment we jump to is mostly likely defined by probability. Like a current of electrons flowing in a large conductive media we flow through the time ocean. Our perception is of where we've been and vague idea about where we're going--a line.
Now the number of possible paths is infinite (or so large as to be nearly infinite). Do we each have out own lines? Is my past unique to the path I took and no other consciousness has followed me here? Or has an infinite number of "me's" followed me to this point and now we're all branching off in the many possible directions? Or does this universe blaze a trail through the ocean that we all share in? With perhaps many other universes doing the same?
If I could go back and find the exact time ocean moment of my conception and prevent it, I could conceivable have no impact at all, for what I have more likely done is jump to a different moment where I was not conceived. However, in the great time ocean I am still born somewhere... and so I can be in a moment where I don't exist. Interesting...
So to follow this analogy a further, time flows like a current. What induces Time Current? If time itself conforms to some of the conventions of Matter, then perhaps there is "time gravity" and "time attraction". Perhaps them certain possibilities in the time ocean are more nodal than others... perhaps they force many currents to them, making them difficult to undo. In this definition they truly could not be undone... but only "not experienced" to that observer... which isn't quite right. If I placed myself in to a moment where I did not exist I would not have made my personal experience unobserved... I would have still seen it in the other moments. But the moment I was in would be without my past influences... The "Wonderful Life" syndrome.
An interesting side effect of this could be everlasting life... hehe... What others perceive as my death may only be their observation in their own moment... I exist in a multitude of other moments. In fact I am dead and/or dying in a multitude (perhaps an infinite number) of other moments right now. However, my observation goes on in others.
