INHERENTLY INTENTIONAL?

IF I HAD TO TAKE A CASUAL GUESS I WOULD SAY THAT THE UNIVERSE, THOUGH BOTH DETERMINISTIC AND UNPREDICTABLE, IS LIKELY INHERENT AND UNINTENTIONAL.   BUT THEN THE QUESTION ARISES FROM THAT DEFINITION  — WHERE DO INTENTIONAL STATES COME FROM?  BECAUSE I THINK WHEN IT COMES TO LIFE AND THE BEHAVIOR OF LIVING ORGANISMS THERE ARE POTENTIALLY STATES WE WOULD CATEGORIZE AS INTENTIONAL AND IF SO, IM NOT CLEAR HOW THOSE STATES CAN BE CONTAINED IN AN INHERENT UNIVERSE.
