Time is the framework wherein processes have beginnings, middles, and ends. Therefore time had no beginning and will have no end; beginnings and ends apply only to processes in time, not to time itself; so, in a sense, time is timeless. Time is the metric of change, and is therefore itself changeless.

Yeah, I could sit and listen to your stuff all day.

A genuine pleasure ....
