[Serious] Is the Past Real?

[BrianSoddingBoru4]

If the past is real and I break a promise I made yesterday, I’ll feel badly, people may be upset with my failure, etc.

If the past is non-real and I appear to break what appears to be a promise I appear to have made what appears to be yesterday, I’ll appear to feel badly, people may appear to be upset with what appears to be my failure, etc.

It’s a wash.
