One question of existence has been answered by many people and the institution of religion, philosophy and science. This question is the apparent passage of time - how it changes as you change from birth to death. Many religions see it as a spiritual process,with the soul and re-incarnation. Many scientists see it as a illusion, a varying measure by humans, heavily influenced by emotion and pain. Philosophy debates and shares with these two and invents many of its own, from change to flow.
An idea of time is that of a river, with the saying 'you can never jump in the same river twice'. This also has a few effects, linking to the core of philosophy itself. You only exist for a tiny fraction of a sentence and then disappear becoming, like the ones before you, mere memory. I am not the same person that I was when I started this sentence.
Another concept is that the perception of time is a ever-bending road, the bends being forgetfulness, barring the eye from seeing the past. you can probably remember from many years back and your past self onwards. This brings up controversy; if you continue long enough back you will go before birth and the origin of life is revealed.
The true meaning of time is unknown, a truth that we may never discover. What is your opinion of time? I am looking forward to finding out.
I believe that time is man made and an illusion. Who decided that a minute is a minute and a year is a year? We waste more time keeping track of time than actually living it..(Personal Opinion)
