Contentment...

Only contentment can make you happy -
desires fulfilled breed more desires.
Keeping away from all desires and
contentment in what comes by itself
is a very fruitful state - a precondition
to the state of fullness. Don't distrust
its apparent sterility and emptiness.
Believe me, it is the satisfaction of
desires that breeds misery. Freedom
from desires is bliss.

- Nisargadatta Maharaj
