I remember years ago when I was watching Black Mirror, an interesting show about dystopian dark future of technology, I recommended it to some people I knew, I thought it might help me to consolidate my arguments against the influence that modernism technology (like social media sites) has against them, how they can be tracked and controlled; however all of them couldn’t complete the show not even a \(>1\) number of episodes. “I don’t feel comfortable watching this”, they said.

At this point I felt they would think it would be discourteous of me to ask about “why?” or even to refer to them that this means that there is something wrong: having a TV show or an idea to make you feel ’uncomfortable’ means nothing but having a great fragility in your mind, and it is in a very weak state.

This actually made me to think more about how most of new generations treat comfort, they sanctify it. Which is a big issue in my opinion, simply comfort does not lead to anything but a stable (in the sense of a bad incessantness) state of existence. I personally consider the absolute seeking of comfort to be one of the fetid thoughts a man could have, for thee supposed to make a change, and a change is never led by comfort. “For believe me, the secret for harvesting from existence the greatest fruitfulness and the greatest enjoyment is: to live dangerously! Build your cities on the slopes of Vesuvius! Send your ships into uncharted seas! Live at war with your peers and yourselves! Be robbers and conquerors as long as you cannot be rulers and possessors, you seekers of knowledge! Soon the age will be past when you could be content to live hidden in forests like shy deer! At long last the search for knowledge will reach out for its due: — it will want to rule and possess, and you with it!” Nietzsche, F., Williams, B., & Nauckhoff, J. (2001). The Gay Science. Cambridge University Press. p. 161

Comfort is a key of ignoring all self-vulnerabilities; you don’t feel comfortable to go on a fight with someone (if you had to for any reason), which might be a wise idea (refer to Les Passions de l’âme which is a great book by Descartes that explain why all passions and feelings are useful, including fear) if they are much stronger than you; however this clearly highlight an obvious vulnerability in your body power, working on it will definitely change the fight to be a great idea, but accepting the “I don’t feel comfortable” to do so will only keep you in your low levels.

Where you fear, there is your mission.
