Here's a twist I just came up with. We experience time passing, because we're sliding through it uncontrollably.
Imagine a sled sliding downhill. If you wanted to stay still in time, that would take active effort. It's like pushing against the sled to prevent it from sliding down. If you want to go back where you came from, it would take even more effort. It's like climbing uphill.
Also, I have zero evidence about any of this, which makes me 99% confident that time doesn't really work this way. It just sounds like an appealing concept that should be a foundation of a scifi novel.
