Time-the product of our minds

Nobody can tell what time really is People found a way to measure
time in seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years, and so on
But that is not what time is about. Time is actually divided into absolute time
and relative time.
The absolute time is the axe which can be measured and can tell us a bit
about history. It is the static side of time which helps us orientate when it
comes to events.
On the other hand, relative time explains what is going on in our own
lives You see every person has his own way to measure time, and if 100
years dont mean so much when talking about history, the same 100 years
mean a lot to a person. The relative time is the product of our own minds.
True? It doesnt seem true but it is
For example, if we take two people and put them in complete different
situations, time is not the same for one as for the other. More precisely, if
one is having fun time tends to pass by really fast, while for the one in
danger time tends to slow down and eventually stop! How do you explain
this?
In my opinion the explanation is that the mind controls everything
including the relative time. When you are in danger your mind gets tricked
to believe you still have a chance to escape. That gives you enough time to
take decisions fast. For the person having fun, time goes faster so that after
everything ends he can realize the importance of the time he has left
Time is only the product of our minds and it exists on Earth because of
us people I say that by giving you a slight example of time and its
changes: Astronauts, after spending years in space (lets presume 15 to 20
years), come back on earth without physical changes. They spent a lot of
time in space and even lost the track of it That means their brain cant tell
exactly whether theyve been there for 2, 3, 10 or 20 years! And as we know
it, the brain controls everything including physical changes. After coming
back on earth, the mind starts to realize youve been in space more than
youve changed. And so you start to grow older faster
So if the brain can do all this, it can also create time for us In a way,
time does not exist, but it feels so real to see the sun shinning every 24
hours, doesnt it?
Now its up to you Is your life controlled my absolute or relative
time?
