Insight, Maybe

I was just sitting in the dining room, doing the crossword puzzle while drinking tea with my wife (strong tea, 'Murrican tea, not that stuff we got in London), when I looked up and told her a thought I'd just had: If I knew why I sometimes get glum, perhaps I could fix it -- but since I never know why (more accurately, the reasons that come to mind as possible causes don't seem to be the reason) I never have to fix the condition.

So maybe I'm thinking about this the wrong way? Maybe glumness isn't amenable to resolution through rational means?

Not sure where I'm going with this...
