If you do something at 7 a.m. at you home in the USA and someone else does it at 7 a.m. in China, did you both do it at the same time? Or if you both do it while on the phone together, is that the same time? In one sense, time is more about the wave. There is a wave that moves over the planet, from one time zone to the next. It starts the morning. It brings the night. To live in harmony with nature is to live in harmony with the time wave. When you are on the phone with someone far away, you are on different parts of the time wave. That is why you can feel some disconnect. You are reaching across the time wave.
We are thinking here about the nature of space and time, not just a physical wave that move through space. We are thinking about the nature of time and its connection to space. This becomes more and more relevant with greater distances. With intergalactic travel, this being understood would be essential to successful navigation, flight, and even physical integrity of the craft.
Is this too abstract for a blog? But I like where it leads. With evolution, the mind explores beyond the familiar. To become flexible, the muscles must stretch.
Awesome to reflect on!
It feels good to stretch the mind like this.
Thank you.
Interesting… Maybe now I know why I have always disliked talking to people on the phone… or maybe not. 🙂
Ah, I have also been thinking about your spaceship. This is great food for thought related to that manifestation.
Abstract perhaps, but not unfathomable.
I work with people in multiple time zones on a daily basis. Most are only 2-4 hours distant, but I do feel the disconnect and challenge. It is more pronounced when the timezone/wave is 9-12 hours distant.
It seems as if I have been able to transcend much of the impact or disconnect, but I’m wondering how practical that can be on every level…
I’m now obsessing over the effect this has on my physiology, sleep patterns, etc when I am connected with people in multiple time zones/waves…perhaps why I feel compelled to work at odd hours/times.
curious…
There is truth to what you say here Logan. All action come with a choice.
