We humans are wired to live, and to reach ever-higher.
That brings both contentment and sadness. Contentment can come when we’ve achieved something. Sadness can follow when we reach for the next thing after that.
A key to longer lasting contentment – loving what we have.
Although the grass may seem greener elsewhere, constant striving feeds dissatisfaction.
Consider breathing in the green.
Lovely Vincent; thank you. It seems acceptance is a word used much and applied little. Yet its transformational power, when lived, is life changing.
Such a good point!
