It's like juggling balls. Some are rubber and you can drop and pick up when they bounce up. Some are crystal and if you drop them they will shatter. You gotta learn which ones are which.

And sometimes the crystal balls really weren't as important as you thought. Sometimes you can get by with fewer balls.

Dropping them sounds like a surefire way for figuring out which is which.

Yeah but some of those crystals are temporally slowed down by time and only shatter after a prolonged period.

Like not brushing your teeth or ignoring that oil change.

You can pick it back up but the damage is done.
