I feel very contemplative today. I woke up in a certain mood, I think mostly because of the dreams I had last night. I can’t remember them well, but I remember waking up feeling out of sorts and dissatisfied.

Discontent is a feeling I have frequently lately, and I have a difficult time understanding why, My normal response is to think a lot about why I feel the way I do. Discontent comes from desire not being met. It seems they that the best way to avoid discontent is to be without desire. But how does an individual improve their condition, or the condition of someone else, without desire? Is the solution to curb ones desires to lower, but not totally remove, the bar.
