Contentment and not satisfaction

avatar

Godliness and contentment they say is a great gain. Even though no human has reached the highest hierarchical point in Abraham Maslow hierarchy which is self actualization most people still find contentment on the first and second level. Humans are wired to keep striving until they win, and frown at anything that makes them feel less. Even though a lot of people find contentment in small things, they don't feel relaxed and refrain from trying because contentment is not satisfaction and doesn't hinder one from pushing for the better. Most times people tend to make us feel relaxed and not try by persuading us to be satisfied with the level we are. Yes, it's okay to appreciate the level we are but gaining satisfaction only limits us from becoming all we can be.

A balance is required to stay in between and not give in to one more than we should. It's possible for one to be content with little until he no longer sees the need to try, or someone who isn't satisfied and fails to appreciate what he has achieved. A balance is required at every point in life to stay on the right track in-between contentment and satisfaction. Myles Munroe says our potential is that things which are embedded in us and yet to be discovered, once they're discovered, they cease to be potentials. Anyone who's satisfied with all that he has about life remains in his current state, redundant, and unproductive until the misery of evolution hits on him.

Nothing has remained the way it is from time past, things kept changing even the climate. If humans were satisfied with the agricultural revolution, there wouldn't have been the industrial revolution, and if humans were satisfied with the industrial revolution, there wouldn't have been the information/technological age. Yes, we are content but we are not satisfied, we will keep yearning for the bigger picture as we appreciate the little accomplishment. It's okay to be content, appreciate the little successes, but never be satisfied with the position you are in, because there's more that you can become.

Whoever is directly controlling the V2K told me to kill myself.
They told me if I killed myself now it would save the lives of countless others.
Saying the longer I wait to kill myself the more people will suffer.


They are reckless and should have shown the proper media what they had before taking me hostage for 5 years. I know there are many in prison that dont deserve to be there because of this. Your stay in prison will not be fun @battleaxe and friends. People are going to want you dead when they find out what you did. I hope you die a slow painful death. You sick mother fuckers.

Its a terrorist act on American soil while some say its not real or Im a mental case. Many know its real. This is an ignored detrimental to humanity domestic and foreign threat. Ask informed soldiers in the American military what their oath is and tell them about the day you asked me why. Nobody has I guess. Maybe someone told ill informed soldiers they cant protect America from military leaders in control with ill intent. How do we protect locked up soldiers from telling the truth?
