Increasing entropy and the reason anything happens
Is the reason anything happens at all (why petrol burns, food digests, hydrogen fuses and cups fall off tables) to move to a lower energy state? Everything wants to calm down, so the usefulness of energy decreases over time and we end up with the heat death of the universe? Complexity may rise (life may form, or stars and planets) but so does chaos until chaos is so complete nothing else can happen and the milk is mixed through the coffee. And if so, what made the initial universe so low entropy?
