Right now in class we are reading the book Einstein's Dreams by Alan Lightman. In this book each chapter refers to time and how time can affect our lives and change our lives. It's interesting to read these chapters and apply the same concepts to my life. There are many different concepts about time that are represented in ways that normal people would not ponder in everyday life; things that are present but go unnoticed. Such as the concept time is a circle. This concept implies that time runs on a cycle and that there are no "firsts" and "lasts" in life, everything repeats itself later in life.
This concept of time being a circle, is found in my life everyday. One example is my daily routine. I tend to stick to the same routine day by day, repeating the same places I go, people I sea and activities I do. My life is like a circle with the cycle of time being the gears that move it. The circle changes as I get older and change schedules but the circle is always there. Time is always there.
