Calmness In Chaos

Calmness In Chaos

The presence of CHAOS in our lives can really turn our world upside down.  And I admit I faced CHAOTIC situations many times in the past BUT through the years, I've learned to embrace it as an opportunity for growth and learning.  CHAOS can be defined as a state of disorder and/or massive confusion.  Even in Greek mythology, CHAOS was thought of as the origin of everything.  In short, we got to figure out that Calmness In Chaos📗📙📘

WHAT this means is that change OR growth could NOT occur before there was CHAOS.  Over to the scientists, CHAOS is thought of as an unpredictable surprise, WHAT might happen during natural disasters like floods, hurricanes and tsunamis.  Obviously, there are different degrees of CHAOS and sometimes there's NO time to prepare BUT having a 'go to' tool kit is helpful.  As per experts, CHAOS is the opposite of restoration OR healing.  WHEN in the midst of CHAOS, we imagine that things CAN'T get much worse and we might even think they'll never get better💧💧💧

I realize that once in a while, those encountering CHAOS can see the positive aspects of the experience.  I had a friend WHO went through a very difficult divorce BUT through that ordeal, he kept reminding himself that 'FROM ALL BAD COMES GOOD'.  YES, WHEN we're confronted with life challenges that might result in CHAOS, it is important that we employ coping devices that can help us navigate through them so we can move from the darkness into the light💥💥💥

With the holidays now in our calendars, it might be a good time for us to consider HOW we'll deal with the onslaught of CHAOTIC times often associated with this time of the year.  Establishing a sense of controlled CALM should be an important priority in our daily life.  Some ways to bring CALM into our life would include activities such as yoga, meditation, exercising, communing with nature OR reading.  Personally, meditation and writing are my personal anti-CHAOTIC activities💦💦💦

Our takeaway:  There are many mantras we can craft and even printing positive mantras like MAY I BE PEACEFUL AND AT EASE, MAY I BE FILLED WITH LOVINGKINDNESS, etc, the bottom-line is to digest all these positivities and translate it into concrete action.  We DON'T want to double-speak, spewing KINDNESS but unkind in our deeds.  We DON'T want to proclaim CALMNESS WHEN in fact, even the slightest snafu will trigger us end up in 'panic mode'.  Dude, let's start CONTROLLING what we can CONTROL😃😃😃
