Is Time Objective, Subjective, Real, Or Unreal?

Eastern philosophy, on the other hand, might view time as a circle, a spiral, a figure eight. Time has no sharp

Kant’s theory of transcendental idealism states that human beings only experience appearances and not things in themselves (Rohlf). Space and time are transcendentally ideal because they allow us to perceive things in themselves. This means that space and time are only forms in which properties of objects appear and not properties of things in themselves. Therefore, space and time are not self-subsistent and nor are they substances that have properties. Kant draws two conclusions for space and three conclusions for time. In conclusion (a), Kant states that space and time do not have properties of things in themselves (A26/B42). He also

Time, what is time, and why is it important? Well time is a concept that humans’ brains can perceive, in fact their brains basically construct the past, the present, and the future. Basically, time is a measurement system, and without it the human race wouldn’t have ever existed. Humans have a very simple understanding of time, and they still do not understand its full potential. Humans only understand the measurement of time, and the manipulation and capturing of time overwhelms them. To this day the only way humans have captured time is their memory, and even then they still get it wrong sometimes.

Time is one of the biggest inconsistencies in our world. Sometimes a second may seem like an hour, and a day may seem like a minute. Our relative perception of time is based solely on the circumstances surrounding that moment. For Elie, one of the first instances where time became a major factor in the

Time, a river of random sources acting upon the minds of existence. The idea of existence, a moral strife of which is created by the natural order of survival. In history people have related this to the past revelations of the human individual and technology, but in sentience it is not of this impression. Morality is the key to this and is the main reason why even animals realize not to kill their own brethren, or other animals similar to their own niches. Morality is also the reason why people believe because of their own past insecurity that even in the present they cannot find their own future, like a wall across the universe, it is just an excuse and could easily be broken by the universe’s shining stars.

Time, from one person’s experience to another, from day to day, from emotion to emotion, varies more than the individuals who experience it. Yet time still can be measured. People, almost from the earth’s inception, have had a desire to regulate time. This is still seen today, with all the watches, phone clocks, wall clocks, analog clocks, digital clocks, grandfather clocks, atomic clocks, timers, and stopwatches. Unfortunately, while it is possible to measure the actual emissions from an atom’s atomic transition, it is impossible to measure time perception in different circumstances. Both the poem “Time Is”, and the statue “Father Time”, portray the integral role of time in humanity.

Time is viewed in many different ways. Some would say that time seems to fly by too fast; others would say that time drags on. Everybody has a different perspective on what time feels like and just as it is to be expected, time affects people in many different ways. Certain people are affected by events everyday in life. Somebody might have experienced a loss in the family.

I was reading something about the time dimension, and it's so complicated to understand, that when I more think in it, more questions I make to myself. It's a concept so abstract! You're right, the time hasn't mass, and it's not compound of atoms nor particles, 'cause the time is basically motion, but if the time is movement, don't it depend from the object that it moves? I mean, if the different objects move to different rhythms from one another, wouldn't exist so many "times" as objects

Timing is everything they say, well what exactly is time? So I decided to do some research and look up the definition on Oxfords Dictionaries to see what the exact meaning of time is. Time is the “indefinite continued progress of existence and events in the past, present, and future regarded as a whole” it also means “a point of time as measured in hours and minutes past midnight or noon” (Oxfords Dictionaries). The thought about time and the concept of it came to my mind today because it actually happened to be the last day of daylight savings. It made me wonder what is time and does it really exist and why do we have daylight savings. Is time something created by man or nature, or could it all just be an illusion inside your brain.

The concept of time is a phenomenon that has been met with much discourse, but is also an invaluable commodity. I began to understand how much of a commodity time is when I was in seventh grade. That was the year my father was diagnosed with prostate cancer. I witnessed a man recovering from bankruptcy, struggling to support a family with five children, while attempting to pass his medical board exams, defeat all odds. By the end of that year all of those obstacles were no more, and with the help of my mother they were able to move us out of that socioeconomic environment. That’s when I understood what time meant to me, opportunity. After witnessing my father battle I vowed to never quit and to make the most of my time. Through medicine my

When he speaks of time it is in a contradictory fashion. On one hand, he feels a sense of urgency as he travels to the party, because he must decide if he will ask his question. Yet, while he agonizes over whether to attempt a change in his life, he tells us time is plentiful, explaining "there will be time for you and time for me/ And time yet for a hundred indecisions / And for a hundred visions and revisions/ Before taking of

Time remains an important key element of life. It helps us understand the way the world functions. For instance we go through life we begin to realize that time is an element which will not ever come back once it is gone. Time is a valuable gift that people take for granted until they realize that they do not have any time left. Although time is physically the same for everyone, we all experience time in a different manner. Several factors impact our encounter with time. One of those factors is fear. Fear changes the way we perceive time, because when we become overwhelmed by this emotion time appears to slow down. An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge demonstrates the way that fear makes us appreciate time and not take it for granted.

Time is a free force and is said to be eternal. Time is a concept that is said to be perceived by the individual. Time is what moves on, allowing one to grow and reach their peak and achieve happiness in life. Experience and knowledge allow us to transcend ourselves in a different time. Different people view time in different aspects, whether it truly exits, whether it is meaningless or whether it exits beyond our lives. In the novel Siddhartha by Hermann Hesse, time is conceptualized as meaningless, while in Hemon’s article “If God Existed, He Would Be A Solid Midfielder”, time is posited as a “snapshot” that is meaningful and valuable.

Time Time is defined as a measured or measurable period, a continuum that lacks spatial dimensions. This broad definition lacks the simple explanation that humans are searching for. There are many scientists, philosophers, and thinkers who have tried to put time into understanding terms. The aspects of time that we can understand are only based on what we can perceive, observe, and calculate. Every day we look at our watches or clocks.

It could argued that our common-sense notion of endurance through time is incorrect. That this mistaken self-conception lead us to experience the passage of time. If so, this would be illusory no? And if this enduring ‘me’ is an illusion then so is the passage of time.
