    Great username. On this event where “everything is suspiciously right” and you’re waiting for the other shoe to drop is a form of anxiety.

    As it happens in the world that affects the mind, if you’re up does not mean someone somewhere else is down because is not a zero sum event, we can be up, and down at the same time for different reasons. This reminds me of the tale of two cities where 'it was the best of times it was the worst of times" sets the dichotomy of our existence.

      Thanks! I loved the flow.

      And I agree. Ups do not require downs. Just the opposite, in my experience. One person’s “up” can, and often do, lift the others around them.
