I suppose i used the wrong word.. rooted.. wat i was trying to explain was that...there is no movement through time..movement can only be comprehended when we see it in relation to our memory...otherwise there are countless 'nows'...like RP said somewhere no present and no future..i agree with your worm apple explanation... as for cyclical nature of events...i guess through observing that also can we feel 'movement'...and also that it is contained.. on the other hand the linear concept i find intimidating personally..and overwhelming...faulty reasoning maybe;-)
