I confess, Aristotle’s idea about categorization is helpful. The world around me is more defined. And so, less mysterious and chaotic.

One of my purposes of writing is exploring what brings a soul peace. Ordering myself in light of truth that I find helps me know myself. And that makes me feel peaceful.

Odd how truth is like a garment I can put on and feel OK. For example, I can be experiencing a tumultuous uproar in my being. Not a biological one- like from eating beans. But, an emotional one. And, truth sort of relieves my mind of its frantic search.

A soul can become distressed by what I consume mentally, just as my body responds to foods I eat. I believe my thoughts and attitudes about myself are a source of great dis-peace.

Dis-peace is a made up word for soul chaos. A beloved teacher told me not to repeat words, like chaos, in one paragraph. By varying my word choices I add dimension to my writing.

Plus, a phrase like “soul chaos” may be easier for people to relate to. If we don’t have shared words and common expressions, it’s hard to have conversation or community.

Soul chaos is disorder of being. This happens when I believe things about myself that aren’t true. Thoughts, ideas, and words that do not resonate with who I am inside, clang, vibrate, even reverberate in my consciousness for days and days.

Untrue thoughts are like a madman knocking on the door, seeking to destroy my soul. Big Pharma claims to have a pill to reduce anxiety. But, I am just going to not allow those lies to find rest in my being. I am not listening to them anymore.

Thank God for the Internet! If we only had media largely funded by Drug Company ads, we’d never know the truth about reality, peace. And find healing for soul dis-ease. 😀

So then, Love is wisdom, truth, peace. Relationship. Good teachers. Mental clarity, soul wholeness. Freedom from lying corporate entities that profit off our dis-ease. But never actually solve it.

How beautiful love is!
