Every once in a while it's good to notice how fragile everything is and appreciate the fact that your life still hasn't been torn apart by entropy.
Most of the time it's better to pretend that everything is robust and permanent so you don't stress about it.
That's balance.

@viTekiM on the other hand, because we're so inefficient there should be a lot of fat (figurative and literal) to cut when the lean times come.
