Time isn't real. Ask a horse what a month is. He doesn't know, it's an arbitrary measure of how many times the earth has turned around from the sun which was basically dreamt up half by the Greeks half by the Romans. Minutes and hours do not exist they're just a way humans have of making sure someone is where you expect them to be when you expect them to be. Dates do not really exist they're just a measure of how far we've got around the sun and they're not even that accurate because we have to add in a day every four years AND the earth's orbit around the sun is constantly changing ever so slightly in shape and length so eventually we're going to be even further out, because time is a social construct which has no real meaning in the world around us it simply exists in human society as an arbitrary way of dividing up our circadian rhythms and controlling society as a whole for global trade and transport.
