The prompt for DAY 1116
Leonard Cohen said, “A state of grace is that kind of balance with which you ride the chaos that you find around you. It’s not a matter of resolving the chaos, because there is something arrogant and warlike about putting the world in order.” What is state of grace for you? Do you agree with both sentences in the quote, and do you think trying to put the world in order is arrogant and warlike?

Documenting the Chaos
of Human Existence

Balanced between opposing forces
we survive in a state of grace
that impels our spirits
to evolve.

Individual components
in the human experience,
we document
personal struggles
and individual lessons
as we move into the dark unknown
of material existence.

Unable to see the final destination
life itself is an act of faith
that requires our souls
to document the miracles
that keeps them moving forward.
