TIME AND DISTANCE

Time and Distance are closer concepts than you believe. Just as you may determine the point between two Distances in measures of Time, you may determine the point between two Times in measures of Distance.

            Time------------------------------------Time  = Distance

            Distance----------------------------Distance  = Time

The concepts that you accept, expound upon, teach, and understand in different ways during your lives are of necessity, taught around the construct of words and word units.

Therefore, many of these concepts overlap, contradict, and share some redundancies. The definitions of these concepts also vary according to era, culture, and socio-economic subcultures and hierarchies.

For instance: the distance between point A and point B is felt to be much greater when traveled by foot, less by horse, even less by car, and respectably less by airplane. How much less does that same distance seem when the travel between A and B becomes instantaneous—when your atoms may be moved from the first point to the second without noticeable delay?

You may argue that the distance has not changed, but that it is the speed which has changed, yet maybe this is a matter of words and concepts and overlapping constructs and contradictions. Yes?

How does this same example change the construct of time? Traveling from point A to point B on foot consumes more linear time than traveling that distance by horse or by car or by airplane. Moving the compressed and cohesive form of the body-in-total from A to B instantaneously requires no linear time at all—so how much time does it take?

Quite often, when you are judging Time and Distance, you are doing so according to the markers in your body and in your life, that indicate change. You say to yourself: “Since I left point A, how much change has occurred since I arrived at point B?”

If you have been making the journey by foot, quite a lot of change has occurred. You have seen a lot on this journey, even if that was not your intention. You have had a lot of opportunity to think and experience and to interact with your environment. As the window of change and experience from A to B shortens, the change is reduced. You are less changed.

This is the significant reason that when you have a “Life-Changing” experience, that is, an experience which changes you ‘in the blink of an eye,’ you feel a great leap ahead. You jump from A to B with a sudden thrust, arriving at B with your changes whole, having never felt their slow turning, and the typical smorgasbord of choices that is usually required to seat them.

Invite into your life all modes of travel and all methods of moving from A to B.

 As long as you embrace the importance of travel itself, 

keeping yesterday’s horizon behind you and tomorrow’s ahead, 

you can always be assured that you are moving towards B.

And once you reach B, it will become your new A, 

and the sun will rise again.
