Living in the Dark

So you know how it takes a moment for light and sound to travel to your eyes and ears? It means that not everything we see happening is actually happening at that very instant. Everything that we sense has already happened, if only microseconds ago. It’s like were eternally living in darkness, never knowing eXactly when something happens to us. It’s only the smallest amount of time difference, but it’s still odd to think it’s already happened, we just didn’t know it.
