Well, "time" is real in the sense that time is moving forward at all times no matter what. What humans have decided is the best way to measure time is, while scientifically based, generally arbitrary. Depending on one's religion, it might be 2021, or an entirely different year altogether.

True. I hope there is an afterlife, and if there is I hope I get sent to the past, if time is even constructed in the same manner. Perhaps things will be less complicated that way. Or maybe not.

Time is a measurable physical force that can be observed to be affected by other forces. For example, time moves faster in lower gravity environments than in higher gravity environments. Also, your mother.

I'm so sick of hearing this...Time is very real, just because it's intangible doesn't make it an illusion...It's essentially math...I guess math is also an illusion.

Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain.

You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today.

And then one day you find ten years have got behind you.

No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun.

So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking

Racing around to come up behind you again.

The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older,

Shorter of breath and one day closer to death.

Is this a hymn you sing in your, uh.... worship sessions.... whatever you may call your religion's equivalent to going to church?

Nah I wrote my own prayer I say before bed every night.

"O Lord Akatosh, Dragon God who is Time-

I thank you for Today

I thank you  for  All Yesterdays

I thank you for All Tomorrows to Come.

Please grant me the mindfulness to exist within the present,

The strength to build upon my past,

And the grace to walk  along your path into the future.

Praise be Akatosh."

True story.

Nice that's pretty neat! I need to come up with my own. All I do is meditate.
