It all sounds so simple when you go by the meaning. But how would you define the state of well being and contentment. Is it that you have a good job and you make enough money the state of well being? You are content because you can buy whatever you need with the money you make. If that is the case I should be the happiest person in the world.
I have been having this discussion with quite a few people these days.Everyone around me seems content, they seem happy the way life is going. I am not different then why is that I am not happy? So either they are truely and completely happy or they are just deluding themselves and the whole world.
