In the absence of order, chaos is not always the master.

In the absence of order, chaos is not always the master. At times, many such moments in my own life has echoed the insane profanity of that very lack of anything but nature’s balance. What do we call it? Blasphemy, a curse? Perhaps. Is that not our nature? To call everything we do not understand, do not know… sin, evil?

Our nature is perplexed by our very own closed-minded stupidity. We revel in the desire to give everything a name, to enslave the world in its entirety into the conformity of what we call society. Our own being, our own shadowed existence only amplified by those we burden with the riches the mortal world create. Yet, at the very moment all that is taken from us, at the very moment, that neither chaos nor order dictates the brief passing of a life, we find ourselves lost and hopeless sometimes helpless.

How very curious this situation is, while we ourselves have evolved from that existence into this state of higher consciousness we believe to be the sentient way… How curious indeed.

I bring my thought back to the question I posed as an attempt to answer my own inability to fathom the strangeness of my life. What lies between order and chaos? What undefined term resides in the fabric of society that yearns to be understood?

I dare not suggest knowing the answer or even a falsified truth. But to my reflection, I smile, realizing I will not die, without knowing what it was to live. That, for the mere fact, that I was willing to ask the question. A question. Willing not to just to exist in the subjugation of similarity and norms.

…knowing, I was willing, to be my own self .
…Have faith.

What do you all think?

Peace & Love 2 U All

Pulling back from chaos to a mid point which is between chaos and perfection. Unfortunately, nowadays, some people feel driven to pull back too far, becoming obsessive about controlling all aspects of their lives. Others merely give up and try to escape from all the chaos. The way it works though is to keep a balance: enough order to make things work, enough chaos to make them interesting.
