Life is easy... too much so

Imagine a soft, cozy over-stuffed couch. You sink right into it. It feels so luxurious. You are watching TV, and have drinks and snacks at hand. It is so comfortable, you just don’t feel like getting up. You make a couple of half-hearted attempts, but your body refuses to co-operate. Eventually you might even fall asleep in it.

My cozy over-stuffed couch is my parents’ home. Life is getting a bit too comfortable. I tried getting off my ass once or twice. Half-hearted attempts. This time I am making sure I yank myself out of it and walk into the jungle out there.

I think it is dangerous to get complacent in life. Keep your blood hot and running. Take risks every now and then.

What is YOUR couch?
