Meaning
This reads as a defense of emotional range, not constant happiness. It suggests that hardship gives depth to joy, and joy gives shape to hardship, so a flat life is one that never risks contrast. In a moment of burnout or recovery, it lands as a reminder that a fuller life includes both strain and relief.
