Contentment is the most neglected and/or the most difficult thing to accomplish. Not everybody can have it, but everyone has access. Some rich and famous people do not have it. It does not depend on how much you have, who you are with or what surrounds you. Even if you have achieved so many things in life in the construct of our society in the form of a trophy, medal, a big check, etc. It is still one thing that is so hard to grasp and take a hold of. It can be seen only in how you arranged your mind because there's a lot of different things and elements in our life that is moving around. Often when we get there, when we are suppose to be contented, we are distracted by other things that are happening. We miss to acknowledge it. Contentment is not the final destination but it surely is a place that is healthy for us to stop by every now and then.
You cannot stay there because our aspirations has no ending. By the time you get the very thing you have been longing for, for a long time, you have another thing that you like to have. Sometimes halfway from getting your goal, you birth another goal. Life is not a snapshot its a continuous flowing movie that goes up and down. Acknowledge it when you get it, by means of appreciation for you to enjoy in the most truest way. You cannot grab and hold contentment in your hands to keep because life is a journey.
If you are not authentic in appreciation you are coming from a discontented mindset and you will never have peace. That's the very thing why you are wanting to have contentment in your personal walk, to have peace. Fabricating contentment is fighting against it. I guess the truest way to be content is through the nature of being thankful. It's not something that can be seen or touch but something that can be felt.
