Who Else is a Notorious Control Freak?

Guilty as charged here.

I was always under the illusion that gripping tightly to everything meant more security. This pushed me to excel in every role — top student, reliable employee, dependable friend — I was all in, always.

But at what cost?

Do you really have power over what exam questions you'll get, if you're gonna catch a cold just before your big trip, or if people will enter or leave your life?

The simple answer is no.

There's a fascinating notion in physics called entropy. It's defined as "the degree of disorder or randomness in the system".

How cool?! And, guess what? This chaos, it turns out, is essential.

So, I decided to view life as an unpredictable bundle of most random things.

I can either choose to live in fear of what might or might not happen, or I can choose to actually live, not knowing what's coming next.

Hey, life is an exciting adventure and I'm here for that entropy, the wonderful disorderly randomness.

How about you? Have you found beauty in life's randomness?
