Time as the Distance Between Fall and Remembrance
What ends is not Reality, Life, or Creation, but the need for time as a classroom of separation and correction. The dream requires sequence; when the lesson is complete, sequence no longer serves. From eternity, separation never truly occurred. From Story, an immense Quest happened. Alpha and Omega are the same point seen through narrative time: the end returns to the beginning because they were never separate in Reality. The Story is real as experience yet transparent as ontology.
