Perhaps it is our very tendency to feel bad about what we 'shouldn't' be doing which is driving a compulsion to keep doing it. Experience has taught you that the best things in life require effort and energy. But another part of you wonders if this tendency is not just a self-punishing streak in you.

Life is a balancing act and we are all pivotal points (if things are calm) or desperate jugglers (if things are not).
