Humans use such things as Cesium clocks to allow some form of standardization for time keeping according to their pre defined CONCEPTS. In that framework, these clocks can and do get out of sync, but this CONCEPT will continue on unaffected nonetheless. That's why we have a Global Network of Atomic Clocks, so that the concept of stability of the concept of time can remain intact, despite some of these Master Clocks getting out of sync occasionally. "Time" can not be affected by Motion but Physical clocks are due to Physical changes. | |

A sitting person might say the ceiling is two meters above them; someone standing up might say that it's only one meter above them; someone else on the other side of the planet might say that the person is "below" the ceiling. Just like height, time is relative. | |
