Really any activity can potentially be overdone, or done to the point of side effects that are perhaps less than optimal. In these moments, practicing self-understanding that is a mix of both wishes for our joy to continue and wishes for our suffering to lessen is probably a lifelong effort and art. And yet this practice may be at the root of our capacity to have real compassion and compersion for others, as well. When you go a little too far, what helps you say, "Whoops!", and respond wisely to yourself? [image description: A heart stands eating a fig. There is a clear rash around the heart's mouth. Text reads, "I once ate so many figs that I gave myself a lip rash."]
