Entirely from personal experience — no basis in any kind of fact or science — life is balanced. Good and bad, equal. Good deeds have a bad counterpart or side effect and visa versa. Maybe it’s not true. Probably, in fact. But it seems that way.

Or don’t. At the very least, think. Step back and think about your life philosophy. In the meantime, see you tommorow!
