Occasional Vocabulary

Not running at a very regular pace any longer, sadly. I'd love to post every day. It would be so easy to do so, too. And yet...it's not happening. Which brings me to today's word.

entropy: the tendency for things to decline into a state of inert uniformity. This may not actually be a thing that happens. It seems like it does, and the universe seems to suggest that it will, eventually, happen to everything. But we won't be around to see it, and definitely in our own lives, it will not occur. Until it occurs to each of us, singly, though perhaps in groups on occasion; entropy on a personal level isn't avoidable.

Perhaps also on a blog level? We'll see.
