Explaining Time (Ageless Body, Timeless Mind, Chopra)

     Time exists for us because we need to explain change.  We are ever evolving human beings.  Everyday we are learning and growing and thus changing.  In order to explain change we perceive it as time.  Chopra says, "...the perception of change creates our experience of time." in Ageless Body, Timeless Mind.  Mainly, reality for us is what we physically see and change helps us to perceive time.  Chopra is suggesting that time only exists for this need to quantify time.  So, if we didn't have this perception then time is really not a one-way street only moving forward.  Where in quantum space, "...multidimensional strings and loops carry time in all directions and even bring it to a halt."
     Can you imagine a life where you don't have to worry about time?  I used to worry about having enough time to write this blog.  What I've learned is that if I trust that it will happen then it does.  I don't need to worry.  If I skip a day, that's ok too.  I prefer not stressing over having enough time or that there isn't enough time much more than stressing about time when that doesn't add anything to my life except stress and worry.  Ha!
