"The primitive man had to fight everyday NOT to be hungry and the modern man has to fight everyday to be hungry..." --Dorian "Doc" Paskowtiz; actually paraphrased from one of his sons in the film, Surfwise.
I mean this in both the food sense & emotional drive kind of way.
By my "simple man" standards, most middle class Americans live in excessive comfort, which is slowly and insidously killing us spiritually & physiologically. there is no will to survive cuz it's already given (to most people).
[add examples of spiritually dying of pysiologically dying slow]
Adversity builds character. Seek growth not comfort. Growth comes from struggle. And that is why I value the struggle. There are those that are too lazy (comfortable in complacency) to push themselves out of their routine way of thinking and try to understand what I'm trying to say. But I'm saying it anyway, even if just for myself to read in the future. peace. I wish I would spend more to really articulate my thoughts more clearly. but i, too, am lazy.
