What Comes Around Better Not Go Around

I can't afford to believe that life is a zero-sum game, that the good balances out the bad and visa versa. An overall cycle of life that leaves you, after all is said and done, back where you started, happy/sad neutral, would be a disaster for me.

Why?

Because today I celebrate 9 years of marriage to the most wonderful person in the world. Can you imagine living through the "correction" for that!
