I want to feel content. to feel okay (happy) with everything. I know I can get there, I’ve been there before, pretty recently and I know that was a good place, I was a better person, I liked myself more. now I’ve become someone I don’t even know, trapped in a downward spiral of darkness and I know that i need to see the light again. 1 month ago

I feel amazing. I have everything I need and then some. Ive come to realize that Im really grateful for everything I have in life and I shouldn’t pursue unnecessary things. 5 months ago

Finally, consider another definition of contentment by A.W. Pink. It should speak well to any trial you might be going through in life, singleness or otherwise:

"Contentment, then, is the product of a heart resting in God. It is the soul’s enjoyment of that peace that passes all understanding. It is the outcome of my will being brought into subjection to the Divine will. It is the blessed assurance that God does all things well, and is, even now, making all things work together for my ultimate good.” 12 months ago

To be content? How does one strive, while at the same time practice contentment? Seems an oxymoron. To settle, cast aside dreams and ambitions and relish in the now… and be happy. Is this the definition of laziness? 13 months ago
