“It takes a high level of maturity to understand that something is wrong when everything is right.”
by Innocent Mwatsikesimbe — from From Chaos to Order, chapter 6
In other words
Trouble is easy to spot when it hurts. The harder version arrives during a good stretch, when nothing is forcing you to look and the honest report would spoil the mood. That is exactly when a life quietly loosens, because comfort removes the pressure that used to keep you checking. A run of good months is not proof that everything holds. It is the period when holding takes deliberate effort instead of alarm.
