Time

I often wonder what exist within time. What is time? How long is time?

I have heard that time does not exist. If that is true then why are we always watching the clock, why are we so familiar with an 8hr workday. What is the purpose of our alarm clocks. Why do we rush home. How is it that we know the hours or minutes it takes to drive to a loved one.

Then I read "time is the length that it takes to heal, to forgive, to gain wisdom, to understand, to change, to grow, to fail and to succeed". And I understood it like this; we are forever healing, we are forever changing, forgiving, growing, succeeding and gaining. So it doesn't exist in a sense of clock ticks. It is eternal, forever incomplete of reaching that point.

In the bible it states that we can not comprehend time, it would phantom our minds. This is why God gave us the understanding of a 24hr day, with the sunrise and sunset so we may rise and we may rest.
