The Chaos Theory: The Interruption

Sometimes life’s little interruptions in the daily schedule are just that. They’re just interruptions. They’re not actually chaos. Or are they?

Sometimes what feels like chaos in the moment is just life tugging on your sleeve a little bit. It’s not ripping your whole arm off or beating you to death with it. It’s just saying, “Hey, I need a little attention over here.” Or, “Hey, can you look at this for me?”

It’s not always chaos. While oftentimes it is, sometimes it’s just life. And sometimes we have to learn that life is messy. Life is filled with little interruptions in our schedules that often—if we allow them to, and all too often we do—if we allow those interruptions to derail our entire day, it does turn into chaos.

To be honest, the hard part is figuring out when it’s just life tugging at your sleeve and when life is actually tearing your arm off and beating you over the head with it until you’re dead. That would be the true definition of chaos. Well, chaos is mayhem—but this is the Chaos Theory after all, so we’re going to write about the subject of chaos.

Chaotic situations turned into a story. Or is it life? Real life, life stories, bent just a little and turned into something for you to read.

And there, at that point right now, we’re going to drop this in the can and call it a day.
