i think contentment is a state of grace. A peace within your soul, and of being able to converse with a power greater than yourself. It's not only being "content" but it's being grateful which so many of us forget to be. I know when I first wake up in the morning, that's not always my first thought and it SHOULD be.
I could go on forever on contentment, but those two things are the most important to me. Take care. Hugs, Lee
