Chronos and Kairos.

The Greeks have 2 words for time: Chronos and Kairos.  Look them up.  Study them.  Think about them.  Do your best to understand them. In a thoughtful paragraph (300-350 words), describe why understanding both of these meanings is important for the construction of historical analysis. 
Why should we have a Chronos and Kairos view of history and time and events?
What would our understanding of our past look like if we only used one or the other and not both?
Give an example of something from your life that represents both Chronos and Kairos.
