And if you're lucky enough to be a photon, you get to have NO time pass, which means that from your perspective, the sun you came from and the skin you get absorbed into are touching. And if space is an illusion in one frame of reference, it must be an illusion in ALL frames of reference.

We say it takes a certain amount of light years to get somewhere but if you were travelling at the speed of light it would take no time at all.
