Hahahaha it's not an easy topic, or rather, it's not easy for those who want to be original in this, since there's been a lot of talk about ups and downs, but I'll say that his statement is somewhat incorrect, given that he compared our lives to peaks and valleys. Life is more like a spiral, along the turns of which we sometimes rise up, sometimes fall down the spiral, if we fail to cope with a turn of the spiral, and some segment of it turns into a mobius strip along which we run, looking for a way to the turn of the spiral leading up :)
If you believe the mountain bees lol, for example, the Caucasian bee that lives in the mountains, it searches for nectar in warm valleys, but returns to the hive in the cold mountains. A beekeeper, a mountain dweller, will consider the valley from where the bees will bring him nectar to be a cornucopia, and the mountain peaks are just a place for his quiet life. He will look at the statement you voiced differently, because, as a definition of life in general, it does not work in the key of ups and downs.
Have a blessed week!

Greetings @barski ,
Indeed there are always exceptions....but for those who might need assistance in seeing themselves through an analogy, Coach Wooden's saying just might suffice....granted he was a Basketball Coach...so indeed his life was certainly not one of calm existance. He was an interesting fellow, if you ever have opportunity to study him and his impact on his players, his writings....you will find his Christian faith was the foundation of who he was.
Thank you for dropping by. ^__^
Always appreciate the opportunity to dialogue over the Principle.

Good day, @bleujay, yes, it is wonderful that the basketball coach chose for himself a wonderful path in God and his life... more precisely, the business he was engaged in was really similar to climbing mountains during jumps to the ring and resting in the valley during landings, and to some extent it is similar to our ups and downs, which everyone goes through, but, everything is not so simple, "to land and jump again", between the fall and the jump there can be a long and painful wandering in the desert, as I said, it is more like a spiral and a mobius strip than a direct vector motion :)
Blessings to you and your loved ones!
