chaos shee-eye-t

When we try to control that which is out of our control, we become an anxiety filled society…And that’s what gets us in to trouble. Man is trying to control other men…but unfortunately for him, he cannot control humanity because we live in chaos. Every thing happens. Every action has a reaction. And if that is true…no actions are their own origination. In fact no energy is ever created or destroyed. If you act, it is because you were reacting. You felt hot from the action of the sun, so you took your shirt off (I like when girls do it, though.) You step on the brake, because you saw that you needed to stop. You reacted. When you decide to read a book, it is because something keyed you to learn something new. So if we are this chaotic nowadays, why do we need somebody to control us? Good and bad things are gonna happen all the time anyway, aren’t they? Every life has its ups and downs, but it always seems to return to an even keel. Don’t you think the first Americans were in complete disarray during and after the Revolution? They balanced it out.

Each up and down in all of our lives is a sort of microcosm of all of humanity. The smaller the life form the faster time goes. As an individual human our life is smaller and faster than all of humanity. Our ups and downs can last 5 seconds or 5 years. Humanity is much larger a being than each individual…It just takes us individuals to make up humanity. So humanity suffers longer ups and longer downs. Whether it’s all of humanity, or a regional part of humanity, can you say this is not true?

So throw anxiety out the window…because whatever pressure you feel can be alleviated by failing to recognize that anybody else controls you. Start small, realize that your friends don’t control you. Then work your way up…The boss rivals your parents as a difficult power to emancipate from. Some of you are controlled by a person that claims to be your lover. You must decide what is worth your action and reaction. If the person controlling you is family…not conforming could solve that problem for you. Your family may not like it, but that is because they themselves haven‘t freed themselves. If the person controlling you is a lover, you must understand that you must decide if it is worth it…I’m starting to ramble, so let’s pick this up later.
