Why does time seem to flow only in one direction?

Answer:

objects that store memories heat up as the operate(computers and brains). heat(energy) generation increases entropy. entropy is a measure of disorder. entropy is an irreversible process, so the laws of thermodynamics(law 1. energy can't be created or destroyed law 2. the total entropy must increase) require that such objects can only run in one direction: from past to present
