Time ends

Posted on June 15, 2020January 3, 2021 by Joel

Time ends.

It is usually viewed as this infinite thing that cannot be defined. Science and religion have tried to tell us how it all began and even how it might end. But on a cosmic level, it is not something we can see end. It is not something anyone alive now can hope to see end. But time ends.
