Einstein once postulated that if you traveled at an enormous rate of speed, time would actually slow down relative to the world you left behind,so that seeing the future without aging alongside it was at least theoretically, possible.
In "The Time Keeper," Mitch Albom explores the concept of time through a character who realizes its profound significance. The narrative delves into how time is perceived and valued, emphasizing the human tendency to rush through life, often overlooking the present moment. This theme resonates with the idea that time is a precious resource that should be cherished rather than taken for granted.
Albom also references Einstein's theory about the effects of traveling at high speeds on time perception. It suggests that if one could move fast enough, time might slow down relative to the rest of the world, allowing for the possibility of glimpsing the future without the normal passage of time. This intriguing notion invites readers to reflect on their relationship with time and the implications of its manipulation.
