i, personally, think that time has umimagniably small particles. Each second, a particle disappears and another appears right after it. Each particle that dies marks one second. And each time a particle dies, space moves, so that is why we see space and look at it over time. Each second that passes in this space, one particle dies and another one reborns. And each particle is connected to something. So, for example, as I move my fingers around the keyboard to type and time passes, my fingers move to show time because each second that my finger moves, a particle of time dies and another reborns.
so, time particles effect the movement of space, and this way, we see time pass by looking at space move by the efects of the particles.

Interesting ideas, and since there's no way to prove that you're wrong no one can truly disagree with you. On the other hand, there's no way anyone can say you're right either because there's no scientific proof of your theories.

I really appreciate Ur inquisitiveness and Ur thinking. But time is not sort of particles as thought by U. If it was then they have appeared at the end of seconds but we can measure time up to "nano seconds", so how we can sense time in between the duration in which particle do not exist.
and one more thing, one second is not an absolute quantity. It is a conventionally defined unit of time which is decided after much debates in the scientific community.
Time for us is the duration (or lag ) bw occurring of 2 events.
An observer notes the duration of one event and calls it the 'standard time'
now if he sees THAT when some event occurs than his standard event occurs 5 times ,then he says that the event he was observing has occurred in '5 units of time' set by him.
take an easy (but quite wrong)example
suppose u set ur heartbeat as a standard event and u find that 2 heartbeats occurs while u take one breathing. so u say that 'time duration ' of your breathing is '2 heartbeats'.
now heartbeat is ur unit of 'time'
this is 'quite wrong' bcos heartbeat is a variable quantity by external factors such as exercise which can give 2 different results for a same event.
Time can be think of simply as the factor on the basis of which we can differentiate between the occurrence of 2 events

i dissagree. i think time is just a way for us to measure change. there's nothing real about time. there is no time particles. light can be considered a particle called a photon, gravity can be considered a particle called a graviton, electricity is particles called electrons, matter is particles called protons, nuetrons, and electrons assembled in different ways.
But time, there is nothing real there. it's really just an imaginary concept. a demention broken down into increments we call seconds, but seconds aren't particles at all. it's just really for us to let us know how long it took for something to change. next time you are in a pitch black room where nothing moves, and you are there for a long time. you won't be able to tell how long you have been in there.

Time is just another dimension of space. It is exactly the same as the three other normal dimensions x, y, and z (in Cartesian coordinates) that we see every day. The only difference is we can only move one direction in the dimension of time, into greater time (to the best of our ability).

Time is mass or mass organization and acceleration. A clock, when flown in space slows down, showing the connections between mass and time. So I think that gravity influences time, like in the theory of relativity. Time dilation. Slowing or speeding up of time, due to gravity or acceleration . So unlike your theory, mine says that time is mass. T = m. If a mass is a certain weight, and when it is acclerated to the speed of light it slows down, as the mass increases. So these show how mass and time are interrelated.

Hi. I think it's more like small increments (seconds are man made) and actually is a dimension. It is smooth, not incremental as you imagine.

As a famous physicist said (I can't remember who it was):
"TIME IS WHAT PREVENTS THE UNIVERSE FROM DOING EVERYTHING AT ONCE"

time(in my opinion) is simply sequence of events that unfold before us.
