never enough
growing up as a kid, we used to have a poster in the house with a quote from garfield saying: too much of a good thing is never enough. the fat cartoon cat was sitting next to what’s left of a pie. i honestly don’t know why that poster was there, it wasn’t particularly visually appealing. however, the saying always stuck with me.
even though it sounds nice, it’s probably inaccurate and perhaps even dangerous. a tasty pie could definitely be considered a good thing. it could potentially uplift our spirits upon consuming it. eating the entire pie though, is an entirely different story. without going into medical details, excessive sugar intake is just plain bad. not all pleasant things (whatever they may be) are good for us, and inversely, not all unpleasant things are bad for us.
arguably, there are bound to be some good things where too much is never enough. let’s take charity for one, would too much charity truly never be enough? quite possible so. the issue wouldn’t be the amount or quantity of charity going around; it would become a matter of distribution speed.
if jameela is giving all of her money, after selling all of her assets to charity, jameela could be considered a wonderful human being; however, chances are she didn’t do the best possible job she could have done. maybe now she is struggling to get by herself, causing her to no longer contribute to charity. whereas if she had distributed her giving slower and more evenly, in the end, she could have helped more people, starting a fund or non-profit along the way.
too much of a good thing is never enough. only if the speed (and recurrence) with which the item is consumed or distributed is moderate.
