Time
Hello, I'm the new kid on the block, I enjoy reading the posts on the
open topics forum and just thought I'd post something a bit different,
put on your thinking caps and consider this question, what is time ?
When did time start ? Will time end ? Is time a static constant ? Does
time vary due to unproven theory ? Just something to ponder ,,,,

skratch/John,

Welcome aboard!

It seems the more I learn, the less I know. I used to believe time was man's explanation for the contiguous observation of events as they occurred over an observed interval. I guess that is no longer true.

The physicists now theorize that all time and all things run concurrently all at once, in different universes. Everything that ever was, or ever will be, all exists concurrently. No wonder I can never get everything done.

That 'splains my headaches. My brain can't quite grasp the multi-verse concept for some reason...

I don't think I'll be considering "time". It would be better for me to spend that "time" figuring out why that Ford at my shop is shifting hard so I can fix it and make some money to buy another implement/ gun/ tool/ etc.

No, time speeds up the older you get. Or maybe it just takes longer to do anything the older you get. Regardless, the apparent effect is the same.

I agree, and the effect is further compounded by everyone else bringing me their work because "You're retired, you've got the time."

The measurement of time is a man made thing. Time as far as made by the good lord is infinitive. Our time here is finite and unknown to us. Gotta remember that we are temporary anywhere we go so try to make good use of your time here. Plain and simply nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky.

Time has come today - The Chambers Brothers. Listening to this song you’ll get tired of time real quick :D

One day as a 13 year old, I was struck with a thought: If time travel is ever possible, that would mean we have time travelers with us, and among us, now.

And knowing about the paradox of time travelers revealing themselves, if they are indeed here, they are probably doing everything they can to hide and blend in.
