How only time in the world is blissfully flowing?

ONLY TIME IS RUNNING

By Anurag Barman

Almost everything in this universe is changing. Be it your age or the climate around you, the world is transforming in every fraction of a second. But the thing is that people sometimes forget the base and root of every change that is happening. 

We often say that our age is changing. But just pause for a moment and imagine that if the concept of time wouldn’t have been there, then how you would define your age. Not only age, how would you define the most commonly used words and terms like date, duration, speed, and velocity. In simple words, we can say that it is just the change that is happening with time. Suppose, a person’s age is 40 years, 5 months, 2 weeks and 3 days. Here, all the four terms i.e. year, month, week and day are just a factor of the time change. So, your age is the change that is happening within you with respect to time. The date which we see in the calendar is just a change that is occurring in this world with the change in time. So, basically, we see that time is the basis of every change that is occurring in and around us. Only time is running and everything is running with respect to it.

Most of the technical terms that we use daily like velocity, acceleration, force and current are all related to change in time. Velocity is the change of displacement with respect to time whereas acceleration is the change in velocity with respect to time. It is a known fact that the fundamental unit of time is “second”. Even though in the present world, a second can also be divided into many tiny units, but in general, we notify every technical change in seconds only. So, something or the other is changing or transforming in every second. Starting from the birth of a new cell in our body to the death of a particular plant species, there are innumerable small changes that are occurring in every second. And if we integrate all the tiny changes that are taking place in this massive universe for a very long duration, it certainly gives a great change, which is perhaps the reason we are living now. It is not possible to describe or notify each and every small or big change that is happening in this universe. But certainly, one thing is common in every change and that is time.
