Just doing or experiencing one thing continuously in life leads to fatigue, boredom, and a mundane life
You need to do and experience different things
For example, with your partner if you just have positive experiences, it'll wear them out and you'll become less excited the next time a positive experience happens. You need to also experience negative things with your partner.
This being said, the concept of "balance" is not true here. You shouldn't have the same number of positive and negative experiences. Negative ones should be less and interspersed throughout the positive ones.
Humility is acknowledging your weaknesses, not denying your strengths
Generosity is elevating others, not diminishing yourself
Why don't pubs everywhere do a tie up and have a trail run like in the movie The World's End?
Promote it all over the town, have posters of it all over the pubs, mention it in the QR menu. Ask patrons each time one gets seated if they're doing the trail run and get them interested in doing it.
Get the trail run included in online publications, blogs, travel forums, and promote the heck out of it.
Win-win for all pubs in the area.

there's something so raw and soul crushing about spending your late childhood+teen years suicidal then growing up and actually wanting to live, after an ungodly effort, only to see your health deteriorate because of chronic illness.
