Theory of Convergence

INCIDENT:
I was watching "Say Anything" the other day, which is always a good watch. And Diane Court brings up her "theory of convergence" that good things always happen with bad things. And of course they usually occur at the same time.

MORAL:
I have been thinking about this for a while now... reviewing my life and picking out possible examples and counter examples. It does seem true that with the good comes the bad. But perhaps is all a matter of being hyper aware of our personal situation. When something incredibly fortuitous occurs, we become tuned into our mental and emotional states more so than in our day-to-day. We are sensitive to our choices and our relationships. And this heightened awareness might make seemingly mundane occurrences (the ones that we would deal with without much thought), more salient in your experience. Comparing anything against something so good could never live up.
