Time differs from space in that you have more volition over your
motion in space than in time.

A person who lacks self control can not choose whether or not to enter
Shabbos. His chillul Shabbos can't be fixed until his zehirus or
ta'avah is. However, chilul ha'aretz can also be avoided by being
elsewhere.

Not saying any of the above because it's my derekh. However, when
someone posts about a derekh haTorah that they find themselves
entirely unable to relate, I see that as a challenge.
