It is time for TEDx.

It is almost time for us to kick of our fall event. You can almost feel it in the air.

Carl Jung once said, "In all chaos there is a cosmos, in all disorder a secret order." These words resonate with a profound truth that can guide us through everyday life. Or the chaotic times. Or any time post Covid. They all kinda feel the same?

Chaos, by its very nature, seems overwhelming and unpredictable. It challenges our sense of control and threatens to unravel the very fabric of our plans and dreams. But Jung’s insight reminds us that within this apparent chaos lies a hidden structure, a deeper order that we may not immediately perceive.

Consider the natural world: amidst the swirling storms and shifting tides, there is a balance, an intricate dance of forces that sustains life. Similarly, in our personal and collective struggles, what seems like disarray is often a precursor to transformation and growth. The secret order within chaos is not always visible, but it is always present, guiding us towards a greater understanding and a more profound clarity.

When we face disorder, whether in our lives, our communities, or the world at large, let us remember that this is not a signal of failure or despair. Instead, it is an invitation to look deeper, to seek out the hidden patterns, and to trust in the process of becoming. Every challenge, every moment of upheaval, is an opportunity to find and create the order that will lead us to new heights.

Embrace the chaos as a canvas for possibility. Allow yourself to be guided by the belief that within every moment of confusion, there lies a cosmos waiting to be discovered. And as we navigate through these times, let us do so with the courage to seek the unseen, the wisdom to trust the process, and the determination to shape the future we envision.

See you on September 14th. Tickets.
