CONSCIOUSNESS OF TIME

Consciousness is the faculty for which we realize things clearly. Consciousness can be immediate if we use the senses and mediate if we use the intelligence and the intuition. Although time is a physical magnitude we have no specific sense to perceive it.

The consciousness of time we get it from the way we measure it. In measurement of length we use a parallelism between the instrument and the extention measured. In measurement of time we used an uniform linear evolutionism (ULE). In the consciousness of space it's just enough to take a look at our environment to appreciate the length. In the consciousness of time we do a prediction of when it will begin or end a certain interval. We know when it will end an hour or how long it will last and act accordingly. The consciousness of time is immediate, although we use our expectations.
