“I’m not intelligent, but I’m happy.” That’s a sentiment I’ve heard before, and it always rings with the quiet triumph of contented ignorance. You’ve traded the struggle of thought for the comfort of submission.

You were rescued? From what... pain? Doubt? Yourself? You were a wreck, yes... but instead of rebuilding, you handed over the tools and called that salvation.

“Happiness” isn’t a final argument. Animals are happy. Slaves can be happy. A well-fed pet is happy. But man was not made for just happiness... he was made to overcome. And you’ve chosen to stop short.

So go ahead, shake off your sandals and walk away from the tension of thinking. But don’t mistake that for strength. And don’t pretend your retreat is some kind of victory.

Enjoy your happiness. But don’t expect others to envy the comfort of a cage.

I’d rather be torn apart by the search for truth than soothed by illusions dressed as peace.
