Space, Time, & Einstein

Lately I’ve been reading Einstein’s biography, where he talks about space, time, mass, and energy in such creative ways. He describes how space and time cannot be defined without each other—how they are interwoven, inseparable. This led me to reflect on how we, too, exist within the fabric of time. Not just the hours on a clock or the phases of a life, but time as a living element we move through.

The Invitation

Our language is full of sayings like time is money, the early bird catches the worm, or love at first sight—little cultural scripts that shape how we value and measure time. But beneath those is something quieter and more profound: an invitation to consider how we want to live inside our time.

Whether we’re paying bills, shopping for groceries, visiting family, or whispering “I love you,” each moment is a chance to be present—to honor time not as something to outrun, but as something that reveals who we are and what matters most.

How we relate to time shapes how we experience our lives, and maybe even how we find our place in something much bigger than ourselves.

What would it mean to truly appreciate time

This week, consider the ways time shows up in your life—where it’s rushed, where it’s savored, where it goes unnoticed. What would it mean to truly appreciate time—not just as a resource, but as an element of life itself, woven into everything we are and everything we do?
