Great post! More of an exploration than a presentation, but a thoroughly enjoyable one.
Last year, I sat down with some hard thoughts about my own life philosophy, and came out with essentially the same conclusion: that enjoying life is about the process of getting somewhere rather than about actually getting there.
There are some intriguing new elements here, including the link with entropy (though I do tend to think that the ending is perhaps a tad too abstract and speculative).
I too, was inspired by reading and quotes, here are a few that guided me in this direction, the most related of which is perhaps:
What man actually needs is not some tension-less state but rather the striving and struggling for some goal worthy of him. — Viktor Frankl
(feel free to reach out, there’s a whole lot more of them)
I also can’t resist to link this Hunter S Thompson letter, which is perhaps the piece of writing that has influenced me the most, and is completely in line with what you propose here.
