Understanding Time: Is it Real or Fictional?

[Langbein]

Is it fore sure that time is only one thing and that it can be defined in only one way ?

What will/could the definition of time eventually be, something like the time itself ?

If one ask "what is time" what will then the meaning of the word "is" be ?

As we lose time, we lose a part of ourselves that we can never get back. Unless it is used for good, it is wasted.

As we lose time, we lose a part of ourselves that we can never get back. Unless it is used for good, it is wasted.

But if we are losing time, then time have to be "something" ?

If not, how can we loose "nothing" ?

Are you sure that it is "the time" you are loosing ?

Could it be some objects more important not to loose in this world than this "unclear if it exist object time".

Could the answer to the question: "What is time ?" be something like "Time is not" ?

On the other hand there might be some other more or less important situations to take care about in this world while doing all this "time" ?

Does "time" has a meaning ?

one of Einstein's main arguments for relativity is that it is better to express the universe as a 4D structure that simply is- rather than a 3D structure that evolves-

time is the mental dimension of event space. we create it by having memories and anticipations. we gauge the distance between events by means of repeating countable events. In my experience space there are objects which never seem to grow nor shrink in total number, but move about relative to each other and I can keep track of these relative motions by means of cycling systems called clocks. I can anticipate where they may be headed by the same means, yet these objects for me always and only exist in what can be called the present moment.

I don't know how to say in English but:
I think that time is not a thing, a prameter or a variable. It is not something we could catch, see. It is not a thing, it does not exist.
I think we could say that time is the toal movements of every single nano thing in the univers.
Time passing depends on the total movements in the universe.
when something moves from a place to another, then it will be time.

Time is the non-event between events. So our sense of time is a sense of nothing at all, brought to you by that which does exist. This is a sort of reading between the lines ... works the same way.
