Getting Rid of Tense

As far as getting rid of tense goes for me. I think it's more a question of if you don't have a morphological, just something that says here, this is your past. This is your present. And how do you go about sequencing those different events that happen? And do you do it by means of aspect or do you do It by means of sequencing just like first this next this. There are multiple strategies now to expect any given language to use several.
