It can get to be too much like that (snaps fingers), but.
"It" is only a matter of perspective.
All it takes is turning the light around.
The trick to turning the light around is found in working with
caring and not-caring, wanting and not-wanting.

We can care too much about the wrong things.
We can want too much of the wrong things.
When our life revolves around, is built upon
caring/wanting, we are stomp dancing on thin ice.

So.

We have to stop.

The problem is that we have lived our life on the wrong foundation from the beginning, and we don't just stop that and start over on a better, more reliable, basis than the one that has gotten us to here, now.

Moving in with not-caring and not-wanting is not smooth and easy. It is very much intentional and deliberate, and based on attentive diligence concerning what we are wanting/caring about.
That is the portal to mood swings and the Deep River Blues.

Keeping our eye, either eye, on our caring/wanting is the goal for the remainder of our days. We have to care just enough about the right things and not at all about the wrong things. The same goes for wanting. We have to want to be free of self-destructive thoughts and tendencies and we have to want to not-want addiction and obsession/compulsion directing our life.

We have to walk the line between caring about the right things and not-caring about the wrong things. Between wanting the right things and not-wanting the wrong things. Walking that line is the key to good health, physically, mentally, emotionally and the end of the line in abut 10,000 different ways. Savvy?
