It is human nature to have some degree of discontentment. We all want to better ourselves and our situation. But what we choose to go after and for what reasons, reflect upon our substance and character. We are what we want. As for what those things are, less is more and we should be selective, zeroing in on what is truly important. Such choices can separate the selfish from the selfless. I believe contentment can be seen in our acts of selflessness.

Perhaps this is higher up the pyramid hierarchy for most people.
