Time Travel!

Round the clock!!... This got me thinking. Clock!!!...TIME....The harder I look , the fuzzier it gets. But don't worry, I'm not going to deal with scientific contemplations of the occurrence of this phenomenon or sorts , partly because I can't and also because, I can't.
So what got me to write this was when I looked at my Seiko watch(8000 bucks btw) during my convocation to see how much time was left for my number to come(yeah a literal translation of mera no kab aayega), I was lost in thoughts. When did it all start! For quite a long time, I've had random musings about the Big Bang theory. It sure does explain the age of the universe, but what it fails to do is to explicate when TIME began. Well it's not hard to imagine when time's going to end, or even if it wouldn't, it could be ideated, so to speak. Ya so time will go on, fine. But to think of it's origin; to think? To think of that is what I 'm unable to do. Do the Big Bang and starting of time coincide? Certainly not, because the next thing I'd ask is, what was there before that. Kills.
Also, it is not hard to draw an analogy here. In math, we have -infinity and + infinity. We also do know infinity ain't a number but is an entity as such. But for problems, we do consider infinity as a number and arrive at "solutions". For instance, say, 7 divided by infinity is 0. 7 exp -infinity is 0. Is this why I'm not able to go back in time and find it's origin or to travel to the future and find out where it all ends if at all it does? Like how + or - infinity is not comprehensible as a number, time too isn't, probably? I cannot stop seeing the existence of another entity here. GOD. Just like infinity, God cannot be realized in what probably is his true form but could MAYBE, just MAYBE be believed in like how infinity is considered a number for problems, and "solutions" could probably follow. Now I'm not sure where this is all going but I understand that God cannot be realized by logical reasoning, but this striking analogy seems to be germane imho. I know I haven't established anything here as such(I'll improve I promise) and this could be crap for a few atheists or probably even theists and agnostics, but even if it is, if you've read this and mulled over it, I've done my job. And ya. After all this, mera number aa gaya , and now I am an engineer officially.
au revoir
