Contentment in Life

The joys of realization

The choices are many, You run after them, The more you get, The more you want, Happiness, not contentment.

Enjoy the beautiful things, Use the things with gratitude, The things you get must be enjoyed, Realization dawns, feel the emotions, Happiness leads to contentment.

Sitting quietly in the fresh air, The sky above sending messages, The earth receiving the vibrations, Feel the emotions and be in peace, Quietly in the state of contentment.

I do not want to copy others, Be me with a unique identity, Enjoy the things that I receive, Love people without grudges, Holding no past biases.

Forget the past injustices, Start life anew and let go, No more injustice or injury, Let go and forgive people.

Receive abundance from the universe, Open your heart and spread love, Life is full of love, happiness, laughter, The joys of realization in the heart, The feeling of a complete existence.

Not everyone is in a state of contentment. People want more and more. They do not have the time to enjoy themselves. You attain the status of realization, after opening up to the laws of abundance, you feel complete.

Forgive people with whom you have grudges. Stop running after things. Sit back and enjoy things with gratitude then, the law of diminishing marginal utility will not apply. This means that every new thing that you acquire will have an enhanced feeling of happiness. Enjoy everything you have and there will be bliss in life. Contentment comes when you find your identity and you are in a state of balance in your existence.
