At any point in time the experience that we have is the merest hint of a shadow of what can be. There is nothing special about the time dimension. This is not necessarily true of a potentially infinite universe. Such a universe may start with nearly uniform and simple conditions over some region. Over time it can evolve structures of arbitrary complexity spanning arbitrarily large regions.
Creativity produces the structures that are the experience of time.
Time is how the finite approaches infinity while always being infinitely far from it. Of course we can never know but the most interesting fantasy assumes the creative process is unlimited.
