Brain thief. I was going to put that out there next. It really is a case of the chicken/egg thing. Collins and Gage International defines time as follows:
“1 the past, present and future: We measure time in years, months, days, etc.”
It is interesting how the very first definition of time is not a definition of time at all but instead, an explanation of how we measure its' nature in relation to it being experienced. In fact every single “definition” of time isn't really definition. They are all ways we measure time.

Time is a program and clocked on the sun. It is figured into the matrix, what I was shown literally as a dream lab. But instead of one homogenized space its compartmentalized into various channels that include the program of time and frequencies. Also, perception is big. Ie. orbit? Movement? Stars?
A robot programmed to experience your day in 15 minutes would appear to be standing still or moving in extreme slow mode. To him, you would vanish from his censors!
Another glimpse I was given in an experience, that one involved the family, was the very nature of time brought up, ie. "this day took 9 days to complete" and had to write that down. When they have the remotes 2 things could have happened. We could have all been taken for 9 days, and then spliced in again. Or? Groundhog Day 9 times. But, sometimes when you're in this shared realm, you're in private rooms.
"Time" is also perceptional and we experience it differently. For some it goes quite fast, and others the clock drags on very slowly. While we're going through our lessons and out the other side, we don't go out with the same meter ticking, at this constant rate. Ie. in our families, some may already be through and out the other side.
Nothing is quite what we think here at all. And I'm OK with that, because I want out, and want everyone, including those who think they're dark hats, out as well, truly happy, gifts to others again. So I'm glad there is a big team and so grateful to them, that all the low level plots and attempts to hijack space time, and affect outcome via altering timelines that many negatives do, are all to no avail. Its just an illusion that one day, they will be very happy to awaken from. But not without consequence, though prefer that to have a lot of support, and healing.

Very interesting...very interesting indeed. One could make the argument that time is a very simple concept given word and shape by the language of man, but it could be argued that we are simply defining the "kiddie pool" area of time.
In other words, we have to the best of our ability defined the 2 foot deep end of the pool, while we remain largely oblivious to the 12 foot deep water sitting dark and stagnant at the other end. So who is to say that our definition covers the entirety of the concept? We may as well offer magnets as an all-encompassing definition to the science of electromagnetic frequencies, electrical currents, battery technology and the rest of that field.

Time is a human illusion. A very important one I might add.
Without our illusion of time, we could sleep for many days in a row and starve to death. That is why we have a sense of "time." even though we are just a bunch of chemical reactions happening on a spinning rock
Likely other advance civilizations who aren't confounded to one solar system measure "time" in terms of distances, perhaps based on the universe as a whole.
Likely other beings live for what we define as "millions of years" but thats actually a very short of amount of "time" since they define time in "distance"

There is no definition for time outside of our measurement in relation to it's experience. We are indeed in the kiddie pool.

Sorry, my friend I must not be reading this the same way you are. That's not how science works. Let's wait until they've looked under all the rocks. Including the one I was under
