Contentment

Better,

Best,

More,

Most,

Never,

Never,

Enough.

 

The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence.

What is the compulsion behind human nature that makes

people to never be happy enough.

Contentment is the quiet form of happiness.

You do not work on being happy or content,

you work on recognizing the happiness and contentment in your life.

To be discontented is to believe wrongly that other people are

having more fun and happiness than you are.

Those who work too hard to be happy will miss out on life.

"The world is full of people looking for spectacular happiness
while they snub contentment."    ~ Doug Larson

The only work required to love, be happy and be contented 

is to get your stubborn brain to believe what is in your heart.

Work smarter, not harder, put your brain and your heart on the same page.

Do not try to make life happen, enjoy life happening.

Make your gratitude list, daily.

Be content that your Higher Power has given you all that you need,

not all that you deserve. (Acceptance)

"If you have easy self-contentment,
you might have a very, very cheap source of happiness." ~ Leon Kass

Better milk comes from contented cows.

Happiness is not trying to figure out the why and how,

contentment is enjoying the here and now.

I wanted to write a big, huge, philosophical paragraph about

contentment but God said,

"Just be happy with the quotes and slogans I'm giving you,
and leave the philosophy to the smarter and better writers. "



Therefore:

"My crown is in my heart, not on my head,
Nor decked with diamonds and Indian stones,
Nor to be seen:
My crown is called content:
A crown it is, that seldom kings enjoy."  ~ William Shakespeare

I'm content to believe that Shakespeare is the better writer.

Please accept my blessing for a contented day, 

courtesy of your Higher Power.

Happiness is helping someone help themselves.

Love is helping someone love themselves..
