A Buddhist eh? Cool! I think my curiosity would soon be satisfied.
About the post.
I'd agree with you on the fact that we're always striving for what we think will make us happier. And how often do we get it? Must times we don't and it becomes a life battle we tell ourselves we must win.
The main question is "What's really important?" You said something I'll remember for a long time:
Contentment.
Peace.
Happiness.
How much of this is down to me?
Does what I want make me content?
Does it make me happy?
Will I be at peace with the results?
Hmmm...Thanks for this.
P.S. You sure you can't be a monk? 😉😁
Good reply. Looking to the future, also good, but the past will not let you go. Humans remember mistakes because that is how we avoid making them in the future. Everyone has moments in the past that brings them out in a cold sweat. Just remember it's good for you and the cold sweat will go away and only the lesson remain. Exclude those mistakes from your future.
