The Two Worlds
Why stability becomes a disease of structure: a thermodynamic reading of chronic suffering, repetition and psychic transitions.
A pattern that repeats is not a failure of will. It is a regime that maintains itself because, in the moment, it costs less than the transition that would allow one to leave it.
This essay reads repetition as a mechanism of maintenance, and crisis as the crossing of a threshold rather than as an accident.
