The Thermodynamic Laws

There currently are two laws of Thermodynamics to which people ascribe.
Number One is "Energy cannot be created or destroyed"
Number Two is "Heat always travels to cold"
Conscious, notwithstanding the possibility of creative, thought requires an energy flow process. The question here is if in fact all energy follows these first two conceptual Laws. What are the enabling factors which first of all compel all entities with the need to communicate. And in terms of both human and animal motivations, Is there a common denominator that would encourage this flow of communication. In other words can people or other enablers (inclusive of all situations) create a difference of potential that would compel the creative mentation to take place.
Creativity is the action of development of something that currently didn't exist in a particular space and time. With people they unless catatonic will be creative. In the case of children they will be either creative constructive or destructive. There are parallels in the natural world where in order to have balance there is a system of recycling of all materials, that would be constructive growing outward or degenerative breaking down and returning to its essence or beginnings.
In attempting to construct creative learning environments there always appears to be this inertia to overcome. Even with the best of intentions, due to habitual learning pathways, the supposed best and brightest of individuals and groups fall prey to this "natural law" of feeling the need to be recognized and having importance
to others. The need for some "Love and recognition". Without due care and continual perseverance this need for a self actualization can torpedo even the best of intentions to create a system or environment wherein Project based learning and doing can become realized in an objective manner. Hence the creative tension of yin and yang, positive and negative, subjective (self) Objective (community). Question is how to "Gate" or encourage the proliferation of creative enterprise that can become Viral to a society. Without which positive and substantial "change" cannot become a reality.
One must walk the talk and keep in the light the place we come from and still exist in order to continually objectify and course correct any activity especially on the group level. Individuals must be able to tap into this conscious awareness of why they are acting out in a particular manner and are they effectively maximizing the energy of communication.
One other natural law not followed or understood is the concept of "Grace" it is found in the every essence of life and is the foundations of all spiritual and religious journeys. All energy from which life is enabled follows the circles of life from the smallest of particles presently known, the quarks etc. to massive galaxies there is a balance of motion upon which all matter travels through space and time. The cycling of night and day, birth to death growth and decay, sleep and activity all manifestations of this larger picture of which we are but mere stereophonic impressions set upon its wavelength, the frequency bandwidth of which our lives are possible. It is important to understand we are but travelers here, from which we really cannot take ownership of these fellow resources, but as conscious entities may dance with for a while. Let us learn to dance as if there were no tomorrow, in the moment enjoy and co-create by letting go of that which we cannot really own.
Could it be that the Third Law of energy is that "The Ego is it's own worst enemy"? Pogo had that right all along. Now how do we overcome this formidable barrier?
