    Too much.

    You can always find a way to get rid of excess.

    … It takes dynamite to get me up 
    Too much of everything is just enough 
    One more thing I just got to say 
    I need a miracle every day,… More

    The Grateful Dead

    Personally, I'm not one who needs much.  Only a beautiful house with a white-water ocean view.  An indoor and outdoor swimming pool, a full-bar, maid service, a gardener, and an endless supply of money to share with my friends and all the land in the world to protect for the animals and wonderful planet earth.  That's all.

    Great question.
    All I can say is I'm standing shoulder-to-shoulder beside you and asking the same thing with you -- because I think there may be no correct answer to your question.

    I try to balance the two out.

    True stability results when presumed order and presumed disorder are balanced. A truly stable system expects the unexpected, is prepared to be disrupted, waits to be transformed. -Tom Robbins

    I depends on what the something is. I'm too lazy to cite examples.

    It's ok to be lazy if you're working hard the rest of the time.

    It absolutely depends on the identification of that something.

    Too little - it gives us something to strive for.

    Perhaps when we have too little we appreciate it more.
