Body Chaos

While Order creates the potential for physical existence, Entropy or Chaos is what fuels and drives it.  As living creatures, our survival is based on being able to feed ourselves on the life energy found in our food. Our very existence is thus both a contributing factor to the overall entropy of the world (as we consume high level life forms to fuel our own bodies) and to the overall Order of the world as we grow and get involved in creative endeavors.

You might say that the whole Darwinian concept of the "survival of  the fittest"  is directly related to a concept of the chaos of multiple life forms competing for natural resources. This same competition between multiple needs even goes on within a individual,  who must decide which need to focus on and which to ignore. But what is missing from the Darwinian model is the fact that Synergy is really the primary force in the Universe. There are way more tendencies for intelligent cooperation and symbiotic relationships in nature than there are for their random breakdown.
