Not Comfort
we are made to be comfortable someone said.
no.
we are made to be soldiers of war, strong and free.
we are here to be uncomfortable.
comfort is a weakness that slows our being.
we are made to conquer, to sail, to live loudly, to be.
comfort is thief.
we do not accept comfort. we are here for greatness!
About this poem
We are made to be comfortable in being uncomfortable. When we get settled into comfort, we do not shine.
