What is Kairos?

To me, Kairos can be described as a physical fight. Imagine your topic of debate or your central theme of your argument as your opponent. Kairos is that split second when your opponent drops his guard and you are able to most effectively land a blow to the body of your opponent. If you are quick on your feet and are able to quickly adapt, you will be able to catch it, because the key moment is fleeting. Kairos is basically the opportune moment to strike or jump at a main point of an argument.
