Gifts of Chaos



"Chaos often breeds life,
when order breeds habit."
Henry Adams

Routine brings us comfort and offers a false sense of control.  When there is order to our day, we maintain focus on what needs to be accomplished.  Daily agendas breed habits and allow us to experience a sense of safety, but chaos appears regardless.

Chaos can be minimized, but it will disrupt the harmonized cadence we intended.  It throws us off our secured path and triggers new thoughts and deeds.  The disruption can help us create new ways of approaching life or reconstruct better solutions to established problems.

Staying the same breeds stagnant behavior.   'Out of the box' thinking generates excitement.  When we alter our self-imposed guide lines, we can experience new insight or become aware of previously unnoticed sounds or sensations.  Without a deliberate mind set, we open to whatever gift chaos brings our way.
