When every day
makes you unhappy,
why ask
yourself
for a solution
to get better?
When every day
makes you feel so good,
ask why
it’s so
and keep doing that –
things will get worse.

About the title: I’m not sure if it is an Australian colloquialism or not, but a common phrase for an abundance of something was ‘having so much it’s coming out the wazoo’ and seemed to morph towards ‘coming out of the yin yang’ or any other variety of experimental and playful terms.
Today’s Daily Stoic poem:

A great piece of anti-advice Shaun – both misery and joy are traps if they lead to over-analysis or rigid repetition
