Sadhguru
Why do I only look for contentment when I feel miserable?
Contentment is sought only in misery
When you are joyful you don't go looking for contentment; you look for it only when you are miserable. Life is about finding full expression to who we are, not about being ahead of somebody.
Contentment is containment. It means "okay, I've made it." On what basis do you come to this? Maybe you are one step ahead of somebody else.
