I think about times of placidity and peace of mind, times I sherish most (as there is nothing more valuable to me than peace of mind), yet I see the comfort in myself rise and become parasitic. I become content with my current status and do nothing to change it or make it better.
Why make it better when you are already at peace? You may ask.
Well, times of peace and comfort never last, and we find ourselves once again battling the same or similar monsters from the past. But now we are soft and weak, as we didnt maintain ourselves strong during our times of peace.
And thus I come to realize that I must always be ready for battle, no matter how good the times are or how I feel inside.
