I think it works both ways, all the time..just when things are going really great, something difficult happens, and just when life really seems to suck, something great happens--maybe not such a great huge thing, but one of those totally beautiful, unexpected moments just arises, out of nowhere. Like this image, of the Utah prairie dog, who stands like this, in silence, for 30 minutes at sunrise, and then again at sunset, a full thirty minutes in deep stillness.
