The antidote to chaos

There is something special about chaos.

It’s the brutal honesty and clarity of purpose. Everyone knows what chaos looks like and why it exists. And that is what makes it special.

In a world where everything is hidden behind a motive, where reality itself cannot be trusted, where deep fakes make what you see with your own eyes a lie, an obvious disaster as chaos is a relief.

Because when the problem is clear, it makes finding a solution easier. Now, the solution itself doesn’t have to be easy – in the case of chaos it’s almost never easy. But at least, you know what you’re looking for.

The antidote to chaos, for instance, is a solution to disorder. Disorder arising from primal unrest.

This form of disorder existed at the dawn of creation. It was from it that order arose. And it took a speck of order, spreading in every direction, to establish the world we now live in today. But chaos doesn’t just give in either. It spreads.

The presence of chaos invites more disorder regardless of how much order you have established.

And while its antidote is a force that embraces chaos, acknowledging its destructive nature and dominance over everything that exists, it could very well spur on the dominance of chaos if not properly applied.

Finding a foothold between chaos and that speck of order is a good place to live – managing destruction while nurturing life.
