The pursuit of order is making a mess on Newsweek reports:

It may seem counterintuitive, but the human mind—and a lot of other things, as it turns out—often work better not when they’re neat and highly ordered, but rather when they operate in a messier fashion. That principle may apply not only to how we live and work, but also to how people around the world deal with regional instability, terrorism and natural disasters.

1. I realized that trying to get things organized is just a waste of time and energy (you can’t beat entropy) that can be put to better use by doing something else. So I am giving up all my attempts to be even reasonably organized.
2. Is the genius of the Indian mind what it is because of the mess, dirt, filth and squalor we grow up and seemingly revel in? (Via churumuri)
