A lesson in entropy…and i guess life in general

I though unemployment was going to be an amazing time where my life would get put back together again.  I was going to re-center my priorities, make a list of the things that I wanted to accomplish in life and try to do everything in my power to get them done, start getting active in church again…and I thought it was going to happen naturally.  Too bad things don’t happen that way. Damn entropy.  This is where we introduce the Second Law of Thermodynamics.

Second Law of Thermodynamics - Entropy

[All this basically says is that things get less ordered as time goes on.]

There aren’t that many laws in science, and only the most universal and unarguably fundamental workings are called such: entropy’s that much of a big deal.  It’s all about how things go from organized high orders to disorganized lower orders.  It’s why bodies grow flabby, why ice melts, and why rooms get messy over time. Just look at former Mr. Universe and former T-800, Arnold Schwarzenegger.  He’s just getting flabbier and flabbier.  It happens everywhere and it especially happens in life.

[This is where all these ideas came to me.  Don’t let the picture fool you; Santa Monica smelled really foul that day.]

And the same thing happened to me in my unemployment days.  I just sat around and slept.  No reprioritizing, no life lists, no activity; just sleep.  Damn.  Oh well…it’s just entropy at work and I just gotta remind myself to keep fighting it off and re-build what the previous day wore away; not just to bring it back to the status quo, but to make it better, stronger, faster, more $6 Million Dollar man-like.  It’s gonna take work, but it’s gonna be worth it.

[It kinda looks like CG, but here’s Santa Monica from the pier.]
