Shall we con- ceive Time as carrying us along with it from past to future, or as coming towards us from Digitized by Google 126 THE PROBLEM OF REALITY. the future, meeting us and passing us ? Now, the Time-content, as subordinated to the Cate- gory of Causation, must undoubtedly be con- ceived as moving from the past to the future. But, on the other hand, we are compelled also to regar...d the future as coming towards us. Language itself indicates this ; we speak of a time coming, that is, of a future time, and of a time past, that is, of a time gone. There would therefore seem to be a double flow of Time and its content. Viewed under the Cate- gory of Causation, the movement is undoubtedly from the past to the future, as already said ; but, on the other hand, we are undoubtedly in a sense meeting Time and its content. The actual moment of Consciousness is the meeting- place or point of contact between these two flows, and it is literally what we may term a metaphysical point.
