I think God just revealed to me the secret of life itself

You see, there is principle of Kabbalah called balancing-emotions – we must have joy in one side of our heart, misery in the other
The reason for this is so clearly seen in the manic-depressive which we all fluctuate in, though perhaps not in such radical mood swings – for if you are living you have a mood – hence to be too high is to lose touch with what you cannot do, and too be low is to simply not have the desire, energy or motivation to do.
So effectively to get out of the state of low, we must believe that God is good and everything will be good – for it is anxiety and worry – as the Alter Rebbe says in Tanya that pull us down.
But to not get too high, we must always bear in mind – which is the absolute truth for it is the very nature of how God made the universe – tomorrow (or sometime in the future and sometime in the future after that, indefinitely) will be far far far – infinitely in fact – Better! – by doing this we do not let our current positive state create an irrational mindset.
