Welcome to the Block Universe
Where time is an illusion, reality just is, and you can see yourself as eternal

Quote:
Called the “block universe,” it is essentially a static brick that
encompasses all of space and all of time. Rather than a
three-dimensional place that evolves, the block universe is a static,
four-dimensional entity (the fourth dimension being time). You can
imagine it as a vast block of glass or ice, stretching out in every
direction in space as well as back and forth in time, containing all
the connections and events that make up the universe.
