Is Entropy Natural?

[David Patty]

The term 'struggle' bothers me in this context--  both on a molecular and
cellular level, the processes of activity & aging extract their toll.  Which
is as it should be:  as above, so below, for organic & inanimate alike.
It's the price of doing business, the high cost of living:  death being born
in us from conception.  There's a struggle to get up in the morning,
sometimes, a fight against the impulse to stay under the covers & avoid the
cold, but that's just part of it.  It's quite natural, albeit not always
agreeable, but so it goes...

Personally I believe you have to accept the struggle as a positive thing.  I
see no profit from being outside the system.  One would be outside time, and
then nothing would get done, nothing would be passed on, nothing would be
learned.  No benefit, no profit, no exchange; no system, no point.  Ugh!

Give me entropy.  It's what makes life worth living.
