Save the Last Dance For Thee

Despondency is a killer. I'll take regular old depression any day. Too much happiness is a killer, it disables your ability to see clearly it renders you totally unprepared for the worst when it comes - and it will come. The worst is never that bad providing you survive it, and if you don't, then despondency, depression, happiness and all that other stuff won't matter a hill of beans. Chill in the conflagration, or in front of the firing squad; at the end of your rope there's always that last dance.
