Make things better by making better things.
The laws of thermodynamics are clear: we are constantly fighting the pull from order to disorder. The answer is care, maintenance, and a clear understanding of the problem at hand so we can provide the right solution.
But while entropy is real, it's easy to see physical structure decay and easy to overlook the psychological breakdown that happens over time—the wear and tear of the mind. Physical breakdowns happen on their timeline, not ours. That can be frustrating, no question. But we accelerate the decay of the mind when we live in a space of “Why me? Why now?”
The diagnosis for a leaky roof is easy to identify. Physical breakdown is diagnosable. Psychological breakdown isn't. It is far more difficult to figure out what isn't working inside ourselves. And we can't be so quick to patch something together like a drip coming from the ceiling. There is no quick fix when there is no instruction manual in place.
