Chaos and Unity: how do you handle it?

[Sacred Fool]

As in for you: how do you handle the dialectic between Chaos and Unity?

These are very elaborate mental "wanderings."  But, as for me--since you ask--regarding such matters as apparent chaos, harmony vs. discord and so on, I take a far simpler approach.  I think it's clear that we can have no palpable influence upon these archetypal elements of Creation.  They exist out there as phenomenal displays.  Fine.  The place we can influence and play with and find balance regarding these things is within our own being. 

Therefore, my response to your query, "how do you handle...?" is that I locate the internal experience of such elements, accept them as part of Being and seek to balance them with love or whatever seems appropriate at the time...if such is needed.

Of course, on the other hand, if I'm having a rotten day, then I might complain a lot or just distract myself because I can't handle being so damned spiritual at that moment.
