imbalance is the art of living
I'm not a science whizz, but I did stumble on the thoughts around the 'death' of the universe1 and while I'm no doubt simplifying massively, the thought of how this would be achieved when energy finds complete balance (stillness?) made me think about humanity.
We're all a mass of imbalanced energy, I'd like to think that when that energy finds balance or stillness (as I'm thinking of it), that's when we find peace and die.
In short, imbalance in the art of living.
It makes each and every one of us a little universe and that makes me feel pretty cool. It gives me comfort and I'm going to continue to think about it this way.
In a constant fight to find balance, perhaps we're looking at it wrong and that we should be enjoying the imbalance that has allowed us to have a life.
Or perhaps I'm trying to rationalise something as complex as life so that my tiny mind doesn't explode, who can say?
No, I don't want to be told otherwise, I'm quite happy in my ignorance around how the universe is going to die and the plot holes that surround my way of thinking.↩
