Déjà Vu

It's something we don't often ask. How long is it when we say now? Is it a heartbeat? Is it a second? Is it 1/100 of a second?

 

Some people say there is only now. There is no past, no future. I might say the reverse. There is only the past and the future. What ever slim overlap there is between the two we call now. Like a Venn diagram with two large circles indicating the past and the present, the sliver where they touch and perhaps overlap (but by how much?) is now.

 

I have read speculation that the two halves of our brains may not always perceive time at the same rate. One hemisphere may be slightly ahead of the other at times and thus we experience the feeling of having experienced something before. Like a time pre-echo. This might explain déjà vu.
