“

  • Welcome, please, come in.

  • Thank you…

  • No worries, make yourself uncomfortable.

  • …pardon?

  • What?

  • What did just say?

  • I said, make yourself uncomfortable.

  • Excuse me, shouldn’t I make myself comfortable? I mean, you’re the host, but usually guests are told to make themselves comfortable…

  • Hmm, peraphs, but let me ask you this, have you ever seen a great life changing event springing from comfort?

  • …

  • You see, from my point of view comfort should be a safe place where you go to sleep in the night, but when it comes to life, to sun light, comfortable situations will never allow you to grow, to comprehend both the world and yourself. Comfort keeps you asleep, even when you are awake.

  • I’m not a big fan of discomfort though…

  • I know, do me a little favour, call me when you decide to wake up.

  • That sounds rude…

  • Oh, my dear friend, it is the opposite: I’ll be here, patiently waiting, until you are ready.”
