“Kairos” translates literally from Greek as “opportunity.” It refers to the perfect, opportune moment to take advantage of a situation — the stars have aligned, and it’s time to seize the day. Someone might be looking for the kairos to ask their girlfriend to marry them, or the kairos to buy a house after years of saving. In ancient Greek, there were two words for time — “chronos” referred to chronological time, and “kairos” was used to signify the time for action.
