We propose that time obeys a conservation law. Time can neither be created nor destroyed; it can only transform into and out of T{0} --- the Singularity of Time in the Form of Nothingness. We demonstrate that space is not fundamental but an emergent geometric property of time-flow gradients. We identify this Nothingness as nature's fifth fundamental force, the generative source of time, gravity, matter, life, and consciousness. This single principle dissolves the Big Bang singularity, the "container" problem of space, and the need for quantum gravity to quantize space. From one field and one law, we derive the structure of the universe. Three falsifiable predictions are presented.
