space and time

Like Einstein said that past, present and future happen all at once. Does that mean there are 3 of me - one that keeps repeating all the crap I've done, the me now sitting here wondering about this when I should be doing laundry and then another me sitting on her ass waiting for the future to happen?

Darn, I flunked.

It means that all versions of you coexist simultaneously, and that it is your consciousness that experiences life in a linear, progressive fashion - you exist as a continuum, perceiving only this moment.

And might Deja vu be when the times accidently run together?

Are they separate entities or properties of a single entity?
It's an interesting question.
For something to happen, you normally need a precise place and a precise time.
If you change or the time or the place, i think it is not happening.
So theoretically, why not considering that it could be a single entity.
It is my intuition that time doesn't exist as such, but it would be more a characteristic of space.
But physics often contradicts intuitions...
However, there are some quantic events which have "random" time or space outcome.
Those quantic events are not yet well understood. This "random" values could then also be a result of lack of knowledge explaining these events.
But if there is a "random" value in some events separating time and space, then this would probably contradict my "funny" intuition that time would be a characteristic of space.
