I'll quote Einstein who said "time is what the clock says".

To fully understand time even as simply as a sequence of events is excruciatingly difficult, and we are still working out the details of our understanding. I think Einstein was on the right track with his quote, and trying to get beyond that would have simply been an obstacle in his path of knowledge.
