@SW-User Sometimes people are just ready. 🤷‍♀️

@DarkHeaven Not sure whether that's true or not. Complete satisfaction = happiness?
@helenS When you are released from want. It’s both as simple and as complicated as that.

@DarkHeaven I feel most happy after overcoming difficulties. I'm a fighter, full satisfaction without any wishes is not my kind of happiness.

@DarkHeaven ... and what you said sounds Buddhist.
@helenS Yeah, I’ll never get that kind either. I’ll keep burning until my little light is put out in the night. 🕯

@helenS I'd argue satisfaction doesn't equal contentment because there's always something more

As @DarkHeaven put it "released from want". That's not when you're satisfied but when you accept what you have is all you need and more.

To me acceptance = contentment

@SW-User Maybe I've read too much Nietzsche...
@SW-User Well said. Doesn’t mean I can find it personally... but I do know what it is.
@helenS *kisses your cheek 💋* You should read whatever you want, beautiful. 🌹
