My thoughts:

It's an unfolding of a dynamic process between two stable states: Need to view the Universe as one big non-linear dynamo that was set in motion by trajecting the pre-existence through a critical point.

Time does not exist without change. Before the Big Bang, the pre-existence may have been in a stable state: there was no change, there was no time. Something happened which pushed the pre-existence past some critical point: Like a piece of concrete stressed pass it's breaking point, it abruptly trajected towards some final stable state which it has been moving ever since: Like a vase pushed pass the critical point of balance over the edge of a table: The trajectory of the vase from table to floor is akin to the entire history of the pre-existence as it moves between two stable states with the dynamics of motion between these states being perceived by us as time.
