What is entropy?
Imagine a nice beach full of sand.
Everyday 2 people clean the shower tile floor area with water and broom, removing the sand and throwing the mud back to the sea.
But next morning after so many yesterday's showers of sea swimmers the floor area has to be re cleaned.
Sand flows from high concentration to low. This is diffusion a manifestation of entropy increasing in the universe.
If we could remove all the sand from the beach but leave sand and mud in the shower floor area then people having showers would actually remove mud or sand from the shower area towards the beach. They would make the shower area cleaner and the beach dirtier.
Is it the same happening with people who have pure or clear thoughts?
Is life more difficult for them as they need to create a mechanism to avoid diffusion of less clear thoughts from the surrounding environment?
Just a thought.
Next day addition. Other examples might be difusion of responsibility or irresponsibility. For example if everyone liters a beach then an individual might shift towards this behaviour unless strong enough. Other example may be shift of markets. VHS video taking over Beta. Other example, if everybody is buying from the street cheap ring baguettes made with a cheap oil that clogs arteries, someone passing by may tend more to buy than not to buy unless strong enough.
