We live in Eden! Take a good look around the nearest
hundred light years or so, see anyplace else even remotely
like Earth??? At the very least Earth is a rare oasis.
"Who has not found the heaven below
Will fail of it above."
It's only our ignorance of this fact, and of it's inherent
creative processes and simplicity, that prevents Earth
from being Heaven-like for more.

Of course there is. Nature can answer all your questions of meaning.
"Apparently with no surprise
To any happy flower,
The frost beheads it at its play
In accidental power.
The blond assassin passes on,
The sun proceeds unmoved
To measure off another day
For an approving God."

You still fail to grasp the new non-linear frame of reference
with which to examine such questions.
It's the battle between the two opposite...minimums...or extremes
that results in good. The static (evil) extreme where nothing changes
vs the chaotic (evil) opposite where nothing ever repeats. When
these opposite evils are hopelessly entangled, so that one can't tell
which-is-which, is when Creation begins.
