Talking about time, that is mean talking about uncertainty. It has no shape yet we can feel, it has no boundaries yet we can count. It is indefinite, a complex enigma.
Once, Stephen Hawking believes that the universe does have a beginning, but then he disproves it because what lies beyond is nothing and meaningless. In other words, space and time did not exist previously.
For then, the universe—the space and the time—do not have the end or beginning. There are only the possibilities of the history of the universe itself.
But then again, it is your choice whether to believe it or not. As for me, I intend to figure it out.

"I'm scared."
"Of what?"
"Guess it?"
"Ghosts? Arachnids? Clowns?"
"Time."
"Time?"
"Time, that's what I'm afraid of. Are you afraid of it?"
"Every single person in this world should be afraid of it."
"You mean that's normal?"
"True."
"And why is that? Are you afraid of it?"
"You can never learn God's mind, that is why."
"Oh, you're right."
"Glad it helps."
"But did you know what I'm really scared of?"
"I'm all ears."
"The truth that there is the end of the time; apocalypse, planets collision, sun's supernova, and such things. And say that if there's life after it, say that if the concept of heaven and hell exist, that we could live again in another realm, forever, infinite, eternal. Then what happened? Say that we're going to heaven, are we gonna do some kind of habit? Waking up, socializing, eating, sleeping, and then waking up again, more socializing, then eating again, and then some more sleeping, and then finally waking up again on the next day, so on and on, forever! Even when we're doing something we like, it has one point—the breaking point—where we got bored, isn't it? It just somehow freaking me out."
"Couldn't be more agree, but that's one question humans shouldn't know the answer."
"Are you afraid of it?"
"You know what I've found most funny behind all of these?"
"What is it?"
"Did you realize that you can't really count the time? what we've count; sixty seconds per minute, sixty minutes per hour, twenty-four hours per day, seven days per week, four weeks per month, twelve months per year, it's all just a system made by a roman man called Gaius Julius Caesar and later refined by Pope Gregory, that's where it gets the name, Gregorian Calendar."
"You're always trying to ignore my question, didn't you?"
"I'd rather pretend that I don't."
"What?"
"You asked me if I'm afraid of the time, and that's my answer. I'd rather pretend that I don't."
"So you're afraid of it?"
"Tell me, if we could break down the entire timeline into three distinct parts, what could it be?"
"The past, the present, and the future."
"Exactly. The past is undeniably unchangeable, and the one who dwells within will never get along in life. While on the other side, the future is undoubtedly unpredictable, and the one who dwells within will ever forget how to live."
"What about the present?"
"The present as you may already know; it is real, it is now, it is happening. You're just thinking too far that our humanly brain couldn't reach. As long as we still breathe oxygen, just live in the present, enjoy the moment, feel it. You have to learn how to respect the time."
"And why should I do that?"
"Because the one who disrespects time, disrespect God."
