And so I think someone can be content in their life and still experience sadness and happiness. And I think someone can be generally discontent in their life, generally joy less in their life, and the positive and negative things in their life can still create happiness and sadness. But I think if you're generally discontent with your life and who you are, the sadness lingers longer and the happiness is more fleeting. And I think maybe that's why we're seeing so much sadness and anxiety and depression today
It's such a valuable reflection. Thank you again for the time and the intention you put into this post. I definitely think it is worth recognizing discontentment, and the opposite of that I would say is just surrender allowance and allowing of the natural flow of life. I think it is normal and very human to want things to be a certain way, but I think attaching our emotions largely to that anticipation or expectation can lead to a lot of challenges internally and ultimately externally also
