Time and distance are related, you can consider them to be both directions if you like, but by your reasoning we would only have one spacial direction as well, but we have 3 (often x,y,z). Time is a 'movement' in a different direction.

 

Explain to me, how I could analyse some energy decay of an ensemble which does not move, but only decays with time?
