And yeah you're right about the light thing, I'm not sure what the answer is there.

time is physcological.

Time ia a variability of an object (individuum). Notions of 'object' and 'variability' are
considered as initial and undefinable.

Variability of observer (psychological time) is a background, on which the time of observed objects is being projected. This statement is close to Kant's idea that time is an internal form introduced into the world by the observer (Meyen 1984).

Besides individual time there is a generalized time (or time archetype) for each class of similar objects. In particular, Meyen considers the physical time as a time archetype of the class of all material objects.

in other words time is reletive
if you want to go into quantum mechanics and quantum physics i'd be more than happy to
