The Catalyst of Focus

There is no such thing as a life without change. Cliche, I know, but true. To piggyback this, chaos, or what we perceive to be chaos, is just another form of change. Sometimes chaos is self-inflicted; but other times it is life forcing you to change. To move on. To move forward when you don't think it's possible. Chaos, in a way, can be a catalyst for new beginnings. If we let it, that is.
Chaos will either destroy you or rebuild you. And the only one to make the call of how that happens is you.
Which leads me to my other point: focus. The difference between a flashlight and a laser is how focused the light is. One of them can provide light and push away a bit of darkness. One of them can cut through stone. The sheer amount of focus you need to...rebuild, if you will, your entire life is comparable to that laser. To change your fate, you must hone in your focus to the point of cutting the chains that hold you back. Without focus, you cannot change. With some focus, you can change but a little. With full focus, with that laser intensity, you can change everything. Cut through the cloth of chaos and mold your fate into something you never thought possible.
Be the beam and break the chains.
