Everything is subject to Time, and is relative to change. A saying my father said to me when I was growing up has taken on deeper meaning for me in the twenty first century. The idea that our fate is sealed, and that there is nothing we can do about it is a defeatist proposition. The idea that things are fixed comes from our culture and popular movies like Jesus Christ Superstar in the scene when Pontius Pilate is questioning Jesus and his response is "everything is fixed." He might have been referring to the sovereign will of God, where God determines the outcome of all human events. But within the epoch of time, there is constant change within our universe because we live in the space time continuum. Everything is subject to time means that we cannot just escape the drive of history, but we are caught in the passage of time and the effects that time has on our environment, ourselves, and the way we think/act/live and our bodies. The way that everything is relative to change is directly linked to the passage of time. If time eventually makes our hairs grey, and shrinks our bodies then that means that not only our bodies will change with time, but what happens in time is relative to change because Time changes things.
The saying that you will heal over time, is a relative saying directly related to the passage of time. You may heal, or you might not heal, but the factor determining this is still time! We cannot alter certain things in time, for example if we are human we cannot naturally grow wings in our mother's womb, unless they are inserted there by a physician which could be very dangerous. There are certain laws within our universe, but some elements are unchangeable! The way we think is definitely a changeable element in our physical brain. Unless certain people are brain dead, even in an altered state the mind has the capacity to change it's thinking.
Time allows us to make choices, and those choices affect Time itself. We can lengthen or shorten our days based on our current choices and decisions. To say that everything is fixed is a defeatist attitude, and leaves us in disbelief of miracles or God's intervention. To say that God works out his plan in this world is more correct, but He gives us free will to make life and death choices which directly affects the passage of time. This is Mike.
