My life is not linear. Time is not constant. My life (and time included) is just a series of times that do not run parallel to each other. Instead, they drift further or closer as a function of velocity and curvature of space time.
Answer: If you are looking for a linear equation in your life, an example could be the rate of the grass growing in your lawn. The y axis could be the height and the x axis could be the time. As it grows, the line representing the grass could go up gradually; when you cut it, the line can stop. Keep doing that for however long you'd like to represent the grass growing/getting cut.
