If you were offered something hugely big, like a majority stake in Microsoft, in exchange for never being able to see or talk to the one you love the most, would you take it?

Usually order, but I have to fight a war with myself daily to stay on that side.

I like having everything planned out and scheduled neatly. It stresses me out to have a lot of chaos.
Although sometimes a little chaos is good.

Chaos. My life is a constant mess.

It’s a question of balance, and my Order/Chaos scale weighs considerably to the side of Order.
Or is “balance” a kind of Order? Would a truly Chaotic person reject the idea of balance? Taking it a step further, would that person reject the very notion of an Order/Chaos dichotomy?

Absolutely chaotic. It makes me itchy to have too much order. I truly thrive on the spontaneity of not having a plan much more than a few months in advance.

I’m with Jake – I like a good balance of the two.
And I don’t care if that contradicts itself.

I think everyone is a balance of the two to some degree, but if the Final Conflict were to occur and sides had to be taken, I think I would have to be on the Chaos side.
Spontaneity, freedom, having unexpected things happen to me, new experiences are all things I need like in my soul.
Everything that works to give my life stability is kind of a necessary evil that if there is too much of makes me feel like I am living in jail.

i mean, i like generally things to be ordered and not truly chaotic.. but at the same time i hate even planning my weekends too far in advance… like asking me on a wednesday what i want to be doing on friday… ill usually decline an answer until friday afternoon…
so, balanced like jake said…. but i just feel like choas to me might be a stronger word than it is to others
