I use to watch Charmed growing up on TV and all their spells would always include the phrase “time and space” and I always thought that was so cool. I had never really considered what that meant or the meaning behind it, but thankfully this class has shed light on the issue or I would continue through the rest of my life ignorant and uneducated. LOL maybe thats too much but you get my point.
Time and space is a crazy concept. Unlike back in the old days, we transition in time and space now. For example, today if you wanted strawberries you could just run to the store and look at all the options and choose the best plastic box that they came in. Now my father would shake his head at my “blondness” even though I am not even blond, but back in the day you could not do that!!! You had to wait until they were in season to eat. Every season runs on their own time. This is really opening my mind to how not only does this apply to fruit and food and stuff but also life. Everything in life has a season. A season for new beginnings, a season for when most people get with someone and then the dreaded breakup season. Friendships have seasons and come and go as you need them and as they need you. Wow I am at a loss for words. Seasons are important!!! But people don’t recognize that because everything is accessible now. Nowadays you can eat strawberries and any other food you can think of whenever and wherever. That, my friends, is privilege.
Don’t even get me started on timezones. Those I will never understand no matter how much I try. I am from Texas, and they are an hour behind Virginia. Virginia is where I go to school but we are in a totally different world than California where my other family is and I just can’t understand how that works and why???? I get the railroads and stuff, but like In some places it is dark and other places it is light and it blows my mind every time I think about it. Sure the sun rotation, but how can two states be so different when the time is only an hour behind. How can it be morning somewhere and night somewhere else and who made these rules? I have gave it the good old college try to understand and will drive myself crazy trying to understand the reasoning behind it. I will just appreciate the world for what it is and the beauty that comes with it.
