At one instant of time, part of our body must be in the future cone and part in the past cone. There can be nothing of us in space-like separations. Our whole body must be causally connected.

If you picture the worldliness of the particles that make up our bodies, we
would appear as particles coming into a cloud and particles leaving the
cloud as it traveled through time. At the end, when the material of our
bodies is dispersed, the cloud disappears because the particles scatter.
