Real happiness lies in content, while virtual unhappiness lies in discontent.
That is exactly why you can see around you there are often people
with their faces appearing that everyone owes them a million dollars.
As always, people tend to be dissatisfied with all the things they have
already possessed: salary, authority, property and even the appearance of
their mates. And they sometimes forget to cherish things they have
on hand, keep nagging and invariably think things coming next might
be better off, while all those already exist are as if not have been
that adorable as once they were. In consequence, they lead a life
fraught with grumbles, persistently consuming heart and soul with
the inferno of lust, avarice and jealousy.
A contented mind is a perpetual feast. Great as the Universe is, man
is, yet not always, satistifed with it.
