chaos

elements of randomness dominate much of our lives. the universe relentlessly fills existence with tiny choices that accumulate to the most immense and daunting of decisions. at those moments, everything that lies in the past of our lives has culminated to that one instant where the decision presents itself. who we were has determined who we are and in kind who we will be, but none of those people ever being truly the same.

the organic nature of the universe forms around each of the choices of every single person in the world, the fluid tendency to shift and warp making every person invariably connected with every other person in existence, spanning even across time. we all affect each other, most often without realizing it and entirely ignorant of how far a single touch really goes. 

and in turn the universe reaches out to touch us back. the constants work to keep our lives spinning as they should, as they have before or at times it will let us taste a new life to see how much further we can go, how much more we can be.

we are most richly rewarded when we give in to the forces beyond ourselves, when we turn our lives over to luck or chance, chaos or faith. when we give our lives to the turn of a coin or the raging seas around us or to God, we are given opportunities to be more than ourselves, to be a part of something greater.

the universe is perfectly crafted, the minute components like clockwork, ebbing and turning in perfect harmony. 

it's funny how often we forget that...
