Volatility is truth

Entropy, the second law of thermodynamics, states that every closed system tends towards greater disorder. But life, as expressed through the Logos, is the anti-entropic system: we are converting chaos into order. It is an ancient religious belief but also what entrepreneurs are doing when they are pushing the edges of the unknown. 

Our tendency is to avoid volatility, to deny change. We live in a bubble of order that has been established over millennia. But uncertainty is a more fundamental truth. We may mitigate it with capital but uncertainty is where we find the sweetness of life.
