What is all this!?

The header is 'TIME IS A HUMAN CONCEPT'
and then it seemed someone dogged the author and he said
'no, err.. thats not what i meant'

Well then im going to restate it:  TIME IS A HUMAN CONCEPT!
(AND SO IS RANDOMNESS!)

we invented these concepts to make sense of our world
the only time-keepers in the world are creatures
who witness the passing of time.

do you think there is a great big clock somewhere in
the universe counting down from the big bang?   
or perhaps atoms each have their own timepieces that they
whip out and readjust whenever relativity comes into play?

no.. we made time.  what we cant explain we call random.

the universe is simply atoms bounding through space
no more no less
But our perception of it all... ahhhhhh.. 
THERES the magic!
