A theory of everything

Through the discoveries of chaos theory, we are able to understand how systems which were once thought to be completely chaotic actually have predictable patterns. We live and we die, this a 100% certainty. I believe by examining the patterns of why we and others things begin and end, we can possibly gain some valuable insight on how everything began and how it will inevitably end.

As living beings we tend to focus on the active side of things. We don't say we are dying, we say we are living, but in fact are doing both. Both these opposites needs to be present for any life to actually exist. Similarly allot of other opposites are present in our lives like inhaling and exhaling when we breath. Two opposites will inevitably become one. This is probably the source of fundamentalism where we focus on only one side of an aspect, instead of seeing it as a whole.

When we look at a sun, it turns all the energy it gets from burning helium and hydrogen gas into harder metals. When we look at engineers, farmers and mothers they turn all their energy which they get from food into bridges, earth and children. But sooner or later all things have to come to an end. A sun explodes or becomes ash and a person dies. These processes are not fruitless, because in space and on earth, death which was preceded by life allowed energy to spread/move.

Stars and galaxies move away not only from us, but also from one another. The only conclusion that could be derived from a universe where everything moves away from everything else is that the universe constantly 'expands'. The same can be said about our organs and cells inside our body, they constantly move away form each other because as living beings we are growing. The Billions of cells in our body move to bring oxygen to our organs. The billions of galaxies move to probably do the same type of function.

Inside our bodies cells and organs experiences a dark place because of the boundary of our bodies. When there is no light, the universe also appears to be a very dark place, we are perhaps stuck in the same structure. The human body or other living beings make life for viruses possible, without living beings there wont be viruses. The same can be applied on a bigger scale, the living thing called “the universe” makes life possible for the virus called humanity. if a virus is going to survive it needs to find away to infect another human body or else it will die with its host. When all the lights in our universe inevitably goes out(entropy) humanity too will need to find a way to infect another universe or we will die with this one.

The inner workings of the universe is hard for us to fathom because of the size. 1 second for us is possibly a billions years in comparison to the life of a universe. We know nothing of the outside of the universe, because the darkness proves we are confined to its inner workings. The universes rich, lucid, pulsing, full of life appearance shows its is perhaps a giant living organism. Life beyond the universe is more than perhaps mere duality or our understanding of life and death. Our organs are made up of matter produced in a sun. It takes not even a small stretch of imagination to see for example a galaxy to also function like a organ or a cell, for it also contains all the matter we are made off and more.
