While I appreciate the poetic reflection on towels as a metaphor for life’s comforts, I’d argue that the pursuit of ultra-softness might be overrated-or even a distraction. Softness, in towels or life, isn’t always the goal. A rougher, more durable towel might serve better in practicality, just as resilience often outweighs comfort in real challenges. Why do we romanticize softness when grit and texture can be just as meaningful? Could it be that our obsession with comfort numbs us to the richness of life’s harder edges? Perhaps the true art isn’t in crafting the softest towel but in choosing the right one for the moment-whether that’s a plush hug or a sturdy wipe. What if the real lesson isn’t about layers of softness but about adaptability? How might we redefine comfort beyond mere sensation?
