From philosophical creativity

Does time have a beginning? Yes, but also, conditionally, no. Our world most likely had a beginning, but before that, as it's commonly referred to, there was 'Nothing'. Logically considering, this 'Nothing' represents a physical reality that is finite in volume, within which time loses all meaning. This matter, though possessing the potential for evolution, doesn't yet have self-organizing properties. Its motionless state or simple, monotonous oscillations, regardless of duration, equate to absolute non-existence. Consequently, "meaningful" time commences with the emergence of "meaningful" movements of physical reality, or more precisely, when matter spontaneously acquires a self-organizing property. This property acts as the catalyst for the rise of complex phenomena.
