In trying to understand how everything could happen at once, I watched this post’s video, below. [More of my hairs silvered in the process.]

What I learned is: Einstein was explaining what ‘now’ means.

In the end [if endings are possible], I could accept that the past is never gone and the future always exists. Everything that ever or will occur is happening ‘now,’ somewhere. That’s a shivery thought. I want more good ‘nows!’

At 5:37 this morning, Pittsburgh time, Earth’s tilt allowed less darkness and more sunlight to brighten this hemisphere for the next 90 days … or eternally. Because the passage of time is suggested by distances travelled [from lunch to dinner, from winter to spring], the words of the starship USS Enterprise’s Captain Picard are worth remembering, “Make now the most precious time.”  [“The Inner Light,” Season 5, Episode 25]

By the way, tomorrow [March 21] is International Day of Forests. Enjoy one or a few. Plant a tree and start your own!

Blessings & best wishes.

Imagine these events as always ‘now.’

• In 2010, Nintendo trademarked the phrase “It’s on like Donkey Kong.”
• Back when dinosaurs existed, volcanoes were erupting on the moon.
• In 1982, A Japanese company opened schools that teach people to be funny. About 1,000 students enroll each year.
• The Roman – Persian wars are the longest in history, lasting over 680 years. They began in 54 BC and ended in 628 AD.
