What is time, anyway? By Willa Meissner

What is time, anyway? 
Is it an invention or a discovery? 
I mean, Who ever thought of seven days in a week? 
Why can't it be ten or something? 
And the names. 
Wednesday? January? 
60 “seconds” in a “minute".
60 “minutes” in an “hour”.
24 “hours in a “day”.
7 “days” in a “week”.
4 “weeks” in a “month”.
12 “months” in a “year”.
So on and so forth.
I wonder why...
