Contentment

Tonight at my yoga class we meditated on being content.

Content...
Being OK with now.
Content...
Taking joy in how things are.
Content...
No worry about the past or future.

Why does society today look at contentment as complacence?

I want to be OK with me now.
Who I am.

I am always so focused on the past (how I have messed up or gotten to the state I am in.)
Or the future (I will be happy when I lose weight.)

I will never get to where I want to be if I am not happy with NOW.

If I accept and love myself,
everything will fall in to place.
