Meaning
This reads as a reminder not to make too much of any one turn in life. It points to steadiness, to meeting praise and setback with the same calm, since both are temporary. It lands in moments after a promotion, or after a disappointment, when a person needs to keep perspective and not let the mood of the day decide their worth.
