Good point Qfwfq; Our conscious preception of time can only be described as a memory within our frame of experience. However when viewed from a scientific perspective, time has a close relationship with the flow of Entropy in a closed system. Before the Big Bang, if one so chooses to hold to the standard model, time did not exist. If our universe is closed as most believe, then as energy winds down and Entropy increases, there will come a point in
time very far in the future where all energy will have been exhausted. At this place in
history all motion will cease and Entropy will have reached it's limit. Assuming that our universe has remained closed up to this point,
time will cease to exist . Time is the memory of the passage of energy thru zero point Entropy to it's ultimate limit.
