Default Let's Define Time!!

What, exactly, do you think of the concept of time? Do you believe it is a plausible, moving force in our world, or is it merely a concept man has created in order to govern himself by via placing himself in a structure that separates the days into smaller measurable brackets?

Now, when I say time, I mean the actually denominators of time, not the fact that we ourselves age and grow old. What I'm saying is do the actual minutes of the day exist, or are they merely a measurement that has no true meaning that mankind has concocted in a feeble attempt to understand one of the functions of the universe?

Myself, I go with the idea that the measurements of time do not exist, and that we've fabricated them in order to be able to schedule our lives around an invisible measurement. By doing so, we give the illusion that we have more control over our lives then we actually do, as we can say that we function in time and are at the right places at the right time, regardless of the fact it's merely a measurement we use to control said schedule and thus leading to a circular train of logic.

What do you all think?
