The book "Seven Life Lessons Of Chaos" by John Briggs and F. David Peat claims that life is "chaos", according to science. I am not one to believe in the new era of scientific medleys or revolutions. I lack certain spirituality, but I can certainly agree that life is a complete chaos. As always its unsaid but evident of a God vs. Science, and this is somewhat interesting. It is amazing that life is so spontaneous and that we are clueless as to what will come next. To me chaos is nothing more than a crisis that leads to overwhelming situations in which you often find yourself at the end of the rope. Christians believe that God has the control of our lives, I believe that I am the only person able to control what happens with my life. Yet, according to these authors...chaos is what controls my life and yours as well. This does not sound far from the truth, though it has not convinced me entirely. It states that linear time concepts do not really exist, time is but a limit we tend to put before us. Life will happen whether we are ready or not. No one can really ever truly predict what will happen, not even our beloved weather forecasters, that in many occasions have predicted sunshine and warm weather and when we least expect it...it pours. We are often found unprepared, and this is an ongoing reality. Relativism is put to question in this book, is there an end to things or do they just begin all over again. I have not read it but I can tell you I am amused to learn more about these theories and perhaps overcome my unwilling nature and even put them into practice. Only time will tell. If you have read this book, let me know your thoughts regarding its content.
