[agumonkey]

I have this weird idea that wild life forced people into this kind of dynamics.

You make just enough efforts to go where you need / want. The rest is superfluous.

And modern society, lifting you into a form of comfort, also ties you to an large body of strings that forbid you to work on your gong fu (whatever task/effort you deeply need to do to feel happy).

It replaces risk with anguish
