Where were you ...

Do you know, I really can't remember! I think my parents were watching it all on TV but I was too young to appreciate the significance of it and all I recall was being hushed up while they tried listen to the commentary...

...ah...now I come to think of it that was the Apollo 11 thing...or was it the 1966 World Cup final...I suppose the old earth forming thing must have been before that...right?

lol, I doubt it.
Okay. Then I'll change my answer.

Where and when are time and location questions that can only be answered from the perspective of this reality. And my body and mind didn't exist from that perspective at the time the Earth was formed.

"Where" and "when" questions require space and time. Time and space, along with causation, are Maya. I, in my true nature, am beyond that. So your question in the OP...where I was when...is a question that cannot be answered given when and where (along with what) are merely an appearance in this reality.

Did you ever notice "what," "when," and "where" can be answered by simply replacing the "w" with a "t?" That, then, and there.

Whereas if you simply remove the w you have the quite different but more specific answers hat, hen and here...

...which I wager could form the basis of a more plausible mythological account than than I suspect is likely to follow shortly hereafter...

...more charitably, I could respond to @YoursTrue 's OP by saying "behold, I am vile, how shall I answer thee"...and see what happens to that.

Darn...that's bad luck...pity it was so long ago I suppose...if the earth had been formed more recently you'd probably have had the phone with you.
I left it in my pocket in my clothes on the other side of the bathroom, unfortunately.

Let's see...that was on a Tuesday, wasn't it? Hmmmm...:D

Seriously, the confluence of material and energy that constitutes me did not exist until about 65 years ago. I'm sure that all of those constituent parts and energy were off doing other things as other entities when the earth formed...
