Three Kinds of Time

101. Three Kinds of Time

There are three kinds of time. The first is represented by a circle and it includes all those kinds of time that repeat themselves—the seasons, clock time. moon cycles. The second is represented by a line and that includes historical time—I was born in 1933; I went to see the Grand Canyon in 1995; Martin Luther King, Jr. was killed in 1968.

And the third kind of time is Kairos time. Kairos is an ancient Greek word meaning the opportune moment. Kierkegaard called it “pregnant moment.” It is represented by a dot and for me, means time of fulfillment.

In practice, for me it means those times that you wouldn’t ever want to miss. It means times of wonder, times when you say to yourself, “I’m so glad to have lived long enough for this particular moment.” I personally want to have as many Kairos moments as possible.
