I remember our Pastor says that avoid all extremes. Extreme emotions, love, affection, rage, anger, sanity, insanity, etc, anything you could think of from positive to negative emotion, and whatever extreme emotion one could posses and accidentally acquired through his/her environment should have, he said that at least make reservation for ourselves and to others as well. The wisdom behind these are really simple, to somehow keep ourselves from hurt and/or pain, it maybe self-inflicted or accident it can hurt us.
Avoiding extremes and or at least put a margin to prevent you from getting to the edge thus keep you safer and less risk.
Whatever extreme things you experiencing right now, give a just-a-thought or put it in your things to ponder activity this coming new year!
