Thought for Today - Contentment

"A mind filled with peace creates a heart filled with contentment." ~Thought for Today-UK

"Contentment is a great virtue, though it may not attract one's attention at first. Those who are truly content are usually quiet about it. It is a pleasure to be in their company, because they are full, peaceful, and generous." ~Thought for Today-UK

"To make good use of what you have and to let go of what you do not have is to live in a contented way." ~Thought for Today-UKI

"Tolerance does not mean simply surviving a situation on a ‘grin and bear it’ basis. It means to respond to all situations with understanding and compassion, and never to allow your peace of mind and sense of contentment to be diminished." ~Thought for Today-UK

"Wherever I am is wherever I am meant to be, whatever I am doing is whatever I am meant to be doing and whatever everyone else is doing is exactly what they are meant to be doing - this is contentment. If you do want to change where you are, or what you are doing, the first thing is to be content with wherever you are and whatever you are doing right now! Paradoxically that's what attracts opportunities and invitations to be somewhere else! Why? Because you are a living magnet, and contentment is one of your most attractive qualities. And the law of attraction says that according to your dominant thoughts so you will attract the people and circumstances into your life. Being content right now attracts the best possible future." ~Thought for Today-UK
