Infinity precedes time with "before" and "after." In time, everything passes, while in eternity, everything is permanently present without future and past.

But how can we partake in eternity while we are in time? Today's people are far from Plotinus, yet there is something common between him and us: We think about time in time.

Time is the life of the soul, the attempt to exist in the flow of things and situations as creators of their life with the purposes of our own life.
