Beyond Einstein: Help Define Energy For Today

"Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocre minds. The latter cannot understand it when a man does not thoughtlessly submit to hereditary prejudices but honestly and courageously uses his intelligence." --Albert Einstein

Let's use our collective energies to come up with a new and modern equation of energy.

What is energy? Go with your own thoughts! Here are some possible question and answer scenerios to get the brainstorming thundering.

This thread is created for any and all users to explore the dynamics and definitions of energy. Where energy resides, what energy is, how energy is used, what it consists of, what consists of it, if it is contained or uncontained, if it can ever be stagnant, why it is not yet at a point of equillibrium, why it has not achieved entropy, why it is considered to not be synchronized and is it in a state of perfection or imperfection?

Remember to explain why, feel free to think in any direction while describing suggestions
