Content...

con·tent

²  [kuhn-tent] 

adjective

1.

satisfied with what one is or has; not wanting more or anything else.

Are you content? Am I content?

Is anyone content? Would you wanna be?

This morning, I heard two different people's 

opinions on being content. Then something

popped up on my Facebook feed about the same. 

 I'm all for being content in 

your blessings. Meaning being patient for what's 

to come and thankful for what you have. At the 

same time I'm not looking to settle, I want to 

always be striving for more all the time. I 

never want to reach the top because down is 

the only way to go from there right? 

I'm grateful and content with spending the rest

 of my life with my husband, but I hope to always

be learning new things about him and new ways

to enjoy and refresh our relationship. Being 

content in our relationship with one another

would be a mistake that could cost us dearly

in the long run. I think there are people 

who feel extremely confident in their 

relationship with their significant other

and to that I say, Yay! and me too! But to a 

sense of arrogance about it, I say there is a 

reason to worry. People are so different and 

always changing, we have to be prepared

to work for the love God has given us! It 

is a blessing and should be cared for simply 

to keep it alive just like we would a child.

So, yes and no. I am and I am not content. 

I am content in waiting patiently for my 

husbands job. I am also content in giving all 

the stress and pain this world can cause to God!

I am not content but so very grateful for 

my current job situation. I am called and I

plan to answer when the time is right.

Again with the patience. :)

So like I said, I am and I am not content.

I'd love to hear your thoughts.

It's almost Friday!!!
