BALANCE AND CHAOS
BALANCE AND CHAOS
Balance is delicate, so easily upset, yet it is so basic to all that we do or that is done. Think of its absence! Then appreciate its presence in all that is. Babies lack balance . Elders lose balance . There is all kinds of balance :
Physical, mental, emotional, social, financial, political, legal, that arise, stabilize, tilt, tumble, and fall. Not just man, all that is needs balance.
Upsetting balance upsets all order of things. Be it natural, unnatural, terrestrial, celestial, real, imagined.
What in the world is balance?
Is chaos the consort of balance or not; is chaos the moon of balance; or a reservoir, manger of balance?
