The essence of chaos is self organising … Chaos is nature’s creativity in the face of constant change. The human equivalent of this, is the process of psychic adaptation. Just as the body has the ability to correct imbalances, so does the mind.*
Bruce Feiler

What does life want from me? What are the circumstances calling me to do? In this scheme of things we don’t create our lives; we are summoned by life.**
David Brooks

This randomness we are born into has
some purpose for us, something that will
use our talents and provide us with meaning;
Existence isn’t a finely choreographed life plan but
our dramatic story response to the need
that is already here with
the best of ourselves.
