eternity
Time without end
Eternity is time without end—infinite duration extending forever into the future, the past, or both.
In religious contexts, eternity is the timeless realm where God exists or where souls go after death: eternal life, spending eternity in heaven.
Colloquially, an eternity is any period that feels interminably long: We waited an eternity for the results.
It seemed like an eternity before she answered.
