Edited to add: I don't think of contentment as not having any plans or not wanting anything more, but it is a peace with how things are now. I don't "have" to have something else to be good with life . . . But that doesn't mean I don't have hopes and plans; it's just that my happiness doesn't depend on those things absolutely having to come to fruition.


I couldn't have said it any better !
