I feel so null, i feel so lame, I feel so bleh! I can confidently say i wish how i used to be. Flawed, happy with the other things and not having it perfect. I filled myself with homilies, poems, insights, so much! i'm like a human fortune cookie when someone says something pessimistic. If someone said to me "oh i'm so upset my gf broke up with me" i could unleash a numerous amount of insights but i like to say "It's not our position but our dispostion that makes us happy." i can make everything not so bad anymore but i can't un-do what i did to myself. I don't like the way i feel. I strongly suggest to just accept who you are faults and all. you'll begin to enjoy the things that go wrong because you know yourself so well. Don't worry about being perfect. I don't believe we're made to be that way. Sometimes when a door closes behind us we're so upset that the door has shut that we forget that new doors have opened in front of us. ~Allan aka Mental Origami I dont like being perfectly content.

Appreciating what we do have is something that we often forget to do. Even something as simple has having a flushing toilet needs to be appreciated. Very nice, I couldn’t agree more.

There are so many good things we can have in life without spending a lot of money. And there are many things we already have or have access to. I have lots of awesome leftover fabric from my quilts which is just perfect for little projects or crazy quilting. Or my couches are quite comfy without being new. There's so much in our apartment which lets us be perfectly content without being rich or having that much. Thanks for the reminder. Wonderful post.

We need to value and appreciate our spouses, partners, children, friends, and fmaily. There are so many wonderful people in our lives that we should focus our attention on, rather than on the things we don't have. To me, contentment isn't being satisfied with all the "stuff" we have, but in the happiness we bring to others and they bring to us. This is a great post.
