Relativity of Time

in #culture7 years ago

Time seems to be the most basic unit in the physics.

Why time is most important in physics formulas? Perhaps it is because time has an equal impact on our lives than any other existence in the world.

Of course, we know time is relative after Einstein's principle of relativity.

But at least time is absolute in our lives. Time is the same for all humans. As time passes, people are getting old and die.
While passing a country I saw a very large tree a while ago. It was a zelkova over 600 years old.

It was two times bigger than adult.

The villagers say that they have had ceremonies for this tree every year. For the villagers, this tree is not just a tree but a guardian deity. The tree was a divine being for them.

On the other side, I reminded one tree that I had seen 2 months ago.
It was a kinds of chinese quince. I don’t estimate know how old the tree is. Outside of the tree looks fine.

But inside was empty.

I never ‘ve seen this kinds of the tree before.

It is difficult to live 100 years for Humans. But trees could live more than several hundreds of years. What is living?
Is the time of the tree as same as the time of the human being?
The time of the tree and the time of the human being seemed to be different.
And time for humans would be different each by each.
The meaning of time will vary according to your way of living.

Eventually, time is relative to all beings.

What kinds of time am I living now?

Historical Tree. Nice shoot.

The brain has an incredible role in building a mental perception of the time so yes, the time is different each by each. Time is even different for a single person, depending on the life stage that he's in. Time was so different for me when I was only 12 years old. It was passing so slowly and I only wanted to pass faster and become an adult so I can do a lot of things that I was not able to do then. I am 25 now, so only 13 years since time was like this for me and now I feel like my time is slipping out of my life and I am getting older to fast.
This subject could be discussed for ours and still not getting a steady conclusion as there are a lot of things to be taken in consideration so I only want to say: Great article and great subject! Time is part of anyone's life .

Thank you for your insightful comment

For some people time is money 😂
@slowwalker, Your writing reminds us to make the most of our time as well as possible, let alone spend time with the family more important.
But the way to introduce this photo of my son named Qaid with his great-grandmother who is now 99 years old, inshaAllah next year even 100 years. Hopefully, Amiiiin ...

Really awesome.
I wish your grandma' health

Ameen..... Thankyou @slowwalker 🙆🙏

"What kinds of time am I living now?"

An interesting question!

In my opinion, and I'm so sure of that, the time that humans live is the kind of time that starts from weak to strong, and then from strong to weak again.

Quran says: "And he whom We grant long life, We reverse him in creation (weakness after strength)..." (Ya-Sin: 68)

Instead, thanks to you. You remind me of Socrates ... you ask something you understand, and understanding a question is half an answer as Socrates said.

It is very nice to have a good care of a big old tree. In my region there are many secular trees such as a millennial olive I saw. Incredible its greatness .... maybe it's the oldest in the world!

I want to see that old trees.

I have always imagined time as space we are constantly falling through.

that's right

Very interesting, thanks

good pics!

Time basically doesn't exist... it's invented by humans, I think aliens don't use it

Interesting. True though..

I don't know whether aliens use or not but I agree it is invented by humans. Einstein relativity theory explains more about but I am not able to understand. In Hindu Purana's says 1 year of time here count as 1 second for gods. when you are in deep sleep there is no thought of time.

That's what i 'd like to say

Humans did not really create the time. We only found a way to measure the distance between two sun rises. That does not mean we created the distance between today's and tomorrow's sun rise.
This is only a humble opinion of a non-specialist so I might be wrong.

thank you
I think your are right

Great shots man as usually. Glad to be a follower of your work :)

Thank you so much
