Relativity has inspired me. Before Relativity, I thought "time" was
simply a comparison between two events. If I had a dog that kept
jumping over a stick at regular intervals, I could compare other
events to his actions. For example, it might take 30 jumps to toast
my bread in the morning. I could get dressed for work in 256 jumps.
And so on. Time, in my youth, was not touchable.
But Einstein has forever disabused me of that foolishness. Now I
know that time is a thing, something real, something that expands and
contracts like silly putty. It is something that attaches to an event
or a series of events and has a life of its own. It is the fourth
dimension, another number to be added to the equation of all things in
life.
With that revelation enlightening my once moribund brain, I
realized there was still another dimension that should be taken into
consideration--color! Everything has color, and color can change just
like all other tangible and measurable things. Color has heft, just
like Einstein's empty space. It can be related to mass, velocity,
force, energy, gravity, and light. Color travels at the speed of
light, yet seems to stay attached to the mass until acted upon by an
outside action. Objects moving relative to each other will appear to
be of a different color depending on the frame of reference and the
velocity.
I'm working out the mathematics. But I have already solved one
paradox found in relativity. Twins traveling in space away from each
other do not age differently--they just change color.
