Micah The past cannot be re-enacted. The possible simply exceeds the present and the actual. Only a portion of it is in reach and can be made actual at any moment but as the present changes so new vistas of the possible come within reach whilst others withdraw perhaps forever. Our experience is full of this.Why else do we fear the wild animal? Without its possibilities whaty would we have to fear? No clearer quality than fear is there? Experience=quality=reality. A radical empiricism is richer than mere empiricism.
