I guess my cognitive abilities and withering brain plasticity cannot grasp the placement of time as a dimension in an equally difficult-to-grasp theory of relativity.
In essence what relativity says is that space and time are not absolute but relative both to the observer and the thing being observed, and the faster one moves the more pronounced these effects will become. We can never accelerate ourselves to the speed of light, and the harder we try(the faster we go) the more distorted we become, relative to an outside observer.
