Random things happen seeming to have no connecting pattern but some point in time a clear pattern emerges revealing a deterministic sequence.This effect also came to be known as the butterfly effect.
The flapping of a single butterfly's wing today produces a tiny change in the state of the atmosphere. Over a period of time, what the atmosphere actually does diverges from what it would have done. So, in a month's time, a tornado that would have devastated the Indonesian coast doesn't happen. Or maybe one that wasn't going to happen, does. (Ian Stewart, Does God Play Dice? The Mathematics of Chaos, pg. 141)
This is something applied to weather.
This is a theory studied in physics,philosophy,maths but after a careful observation I begin to believe that chaos theory is something evident in each of our lives.People having a good memory and an instinct to relate random events would be able to derive a pattern from chaotic events in their lives.If a pattern is identified from past events,the same could be used to predict their future events.
Still thinking in depth on applying the chaos theory to my life,let me see how it works....
