I dont agree with Art or Memalvada. Perception of time is simply 'perception' of time. Time itself doesnt change. Yes you will perceive time to pass quickly when you are on a rollercoaster . . and to pass slowly in a Dentist waiting Room . . . . . . but that is just your personal perception. When you are in the Dentist someone is on a rollercoaster . . . . 30 minutes is just 30 minutes.
I struck me a while ago that it is not possible to measure time without expending energy (a clock and watch need wound up . . .or a battery . . . . the sun needs to move in the sky . . . . . . drips of water need to fall . . 'something' needs to expend energy with a reliable steady frequency to count time. I supppose time would stand still if nothing moved . . . . not a planet . . not an atom . . even electrons would have to freeze. In such a state everything would be frozen in time . . there would have to be no energy anywhere for time to stop. So I propose that time is simply an observation of energy being expended.
