Good video explaining Time as viewed in physics and Time as we actually experience it. I would propose that Time retains a sort of symmetry in our experience in the form of always being book-ended by a past and a future: two non-present states which nonetheless are radically different in their natures. Though time is indeed experienced asymmetrically by us as always going in one direction, it is only possible for it to do so because of the concurrence of past and future symmetrically flanking our present moment. There is thus always a before AND after and never a before OR after----a dual state which is symmetrically bifurcated by the present instant. IOW, a sort of meta-present or trans-temporal simultaneity of past and present and future some might refer to as eternity.
