The Order of Time. An Excerpt for the Business Landscape..

There is a time to be born and a time to die, a time to weep and a time to dance, a time to kill and a time to heal. A time to destroy and a time to build. Everything in the world becomes blurred when seen close up. There is a time to be born and a time to die, a time to weep and a time to dance, a time to kill and a time to heal. A time to destroy and a time to build. It involves our relation with the sun and the stars. We understand it by asking ourselves how we move. Cosmic movement emerges from the relation between the cosmos and ourselves. Time is the measurement of change. Things change continually. We call ‘time’ the measurement, the counting of this change. So if nothing changes, if nothing moves, does time therefore cease to pass? If nothing changes, time does not pass – because time is our way of situating ourselves in relation to the changing of things: the placing of ourselves in relation to the counting of days. More than a drawing on a canvas, the world is like a superimposition of canvases, of strata, where the gravitational field is only one among others. Just like the others, it is neither absolute nor uniform, nor is it fixed: it flexes, stretches and jostles with the others, pushing and pulling against them Rovelli, Carlo.
