🤍 Character & conduct between spouses · #376
I already have enough but my heart keeps feeling never satisfied. How do I change this?
The feeling of never having enough is a sickness of the heart, not a sign of lacking wealth, and its cure is gratitude that is practised, not more wealth. True richness is richness of the soul, not abundance of possessions. Pause and count what you already have before thinking about the next thing. Identify when this feeling peaks, usually after comparing yourself with others, and keep away from those triggers. Channel the urge for ‘more’ into more good deeds and knowledge, not things. Pray for a contented heart. A content soul enjoys a little with satisfaction, outdoing a greedy soul that enjoys a lot without ever feeling full. See mental health.
