What goes up must come down

Once again my moment of inspiration came when I was out on my balcony enjoying my favourite smoke; as I was watching a slight drizzle hit the ground quietly, the famous proverb (if you can call it that) "what goes up must come down" came to my mind. I thought to myself briefly that whoever came up with that was one sad man. You have to notice that the subliminal message is very pessimistic and gloomy, which is fine and dandy by me since I am a pessimistic, cynical and gloomy sort of person. The phrase talks about things coming down but it left out an important detail; it never talks about how whatever it is got to the top in the first place. I feel too many times we don't notice the other half of things. So there I was thinking about this phrase while the rain dropped without a sound and I said to myself "what goes down must come up, eventually" unless of course that is where the whole deal ends i.e. at the bottom e.g. a bankrupt investor who dies whilst still in bakruptcy, but all things apart the bankrupt person should be able to end off at a place "higher" than when he was during his bankruptcy. So remember there is always a flip side to things and what goes up must come down and what comes down must go up, eventually.
