Chaos

Like the shadow of our subconscious, chaos lurks in the little space between Order and disorder.  This is why a hundred year forest can be destroyed in a week when set ablaze.  Centuries of culture are ruined by one evil act, of man or nature. 

We have seen this, hundred year floods, pandemic, terrorists destroying lives and cities.  The planet and mankind are determined to wash away or burn all we have built.

As we stand bereft of our loved ones, our civility, our sanity, know that chaos though fleeting is part of the pattern of life.  The immediate destruction, the evil doing, the tragedy, wipes out and erases our trajectory.

Much beauty, eloquence has been lost to it.  But as each generation withers and dies, it brings forward fresh youth to carry on civilization.  Einstein is lost to us, but the light of his science has been both a blessing and curse to mankind.  Jesus could not remain with us.  But we still have life.

We have seen better days.  We can rebuild an even better future.
