Time is an abstract concept of measuring the sequence of events within the universe. It is the fourth known dimension of reality.

Time is one of the most precious resources given to humans. It is every person's responsibility not to squander the gift of time by engaging in unproductive activities such as watching television, bickering or frequenting worthless websites on the internet, and instead to use their time industriously for the betterment of society and the greater glory of God. Conservative values can be a helpful aid to achieving this objective.

Time is often personified as Old Father Time, an old man with a long beard and a sickle.

According to Relativity, time is intrinsically linked with space[Citation Needed].

In legal proceedings, court rules specify how time is calculated for determining deadlines. The Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, for example, has a separate Rule 6 entitled "Time". As of 2008 it specifies that holidays and weekends are included in calculating time periods for deadlines unless the period "prescribed or allowed is less than 11 days." When the deadline falls on a weekend or holiday or day in which the office of the clerk is inaccessible due to "weather or other conditions," then the deadline is the next day not aforementioned.
