Why does it seem that, the harder I try to achieve peace and harmony, the harder the Universe works to undo it all?

It occurred to me this morning that perhaps I’ve been putting unnecessary effort into this. It’s a complicated thought but let’s see if I can express it simply:

The Universe, from tiny atoms all the way up to galaxies (and that includes you, me, and the world around us) all seek balance. Chaos is a natural state of things while they seek to attain balance. Balance is attained without human intervention.

Fighting to attain a “perceived” balance is therefor futile because you’re adjusting things that are ultimately beyond your control, and upsetting the natural patterns that are trying to form.

So then, we shouldn’t seek balance. The Universe will impose it upon us naturally. We should therefor seek to merely endure chaos until balance attains itself.

How zen is that?
