It was a free day for me, I enjoyed my time on this platform today. Hope your day went well?

Enjoy reading this piece of mine❤️

In as much as we've heard, listened to encouragement words to be contented and satisfied with what we have, we still have a loophole on this aspect. Human beings are created to hunger for more even if we have all we needed.

Is it that God made it so? He made it for a suppose? I've heard preachers of contentment wishing to be another figure, more richer or preferably to be out of their country. Who doesn't like good life? Lol.

Let me not go far, sincerely answer yourself these questions to yourself:

  • Are you satisfied with what you have now?

  • Are you satisfied with your educational achievements so far?

  • Are you cool with the way your body look?

  • Are you satisfied with your current fiance? Yeah, fiance🧐.

  • Are you okay with your skin color?

  • Are you okay with the quantity of BCH you have currently?

If truly you gave yourself a sincere answer you'd see that you're guilty of uncontentment too.

I know being satisfied plays a cool game in our daily lives, it helps not to indulge in dubious acts but I think uncontentment is a natural act, it runs in us, it's most times inevitable. You can only try to control it but can't completely put an end to it.

We are all guilty of this fact and I want to prove some points.

The poor want to get rich. You can't see a poor young man happy in his poor state, there's every tendency of him thinking on how to make money on every 5hours. Even if he is in a good health and everyone around him are healthy, the urge to make wealth is naturally there in his heart beating fast with a thick reminder sound. Social media will put a constant reminder to him because the media is all about flaunting of riches, he'd get oppressed and depressed if care is not taken. Haven't you heard of Internet fraudsters? They'll intimidate with their flaunts of cars, houses and babes to the extent you'd start thinking if God is baias. Lol

On a normal circumstances, no one is Happy being poor. Even the trying ones are often times not okay with where they are, the urge to push further will always be there.

The rich fighting to be richer. In a contrary facts, the rich are also not satisfied with where they are. It's natural bro. If you're rich (you have money in account, landed properties, houses, cars), you still want to acquire more. If I'm wrong, please come and proof me wrong. There's this unsatisfied spirit among the rich, they're not satisfied whatsoever, they want to acquire and accumulate more. At some points, being rich alone is not enough to them, so they divert to becoming famous- some go into politics. They want their name to be heard and by so doing, they venture into power holding (occultic and the rest). Do you think these are just ordinary Desires? No, it's the force on uncontentment at work.

The fair and the dark coloured skin. My Africa people, you're all used to this. We know the battles we are facing everyday on this point. You'd see the dark desiring to be fair. You think that desire is ordinary? No, it's force of uncontentment at work. This will push the dark to use Organic cream to change their skin colour (Sorry oo if you are a victim here). Though is now seen as fashion but I quote it wrong, it shouldn't be so. Even the fair changes their color to dark because they assumed black is better. I've seen a fair lady that treated her color to dark because she has a black large spot on her face. She want her body to follow her face. Let me divert a title, we all know late Michael Jackson, right? Okay ponder on that.

The thin and thick. This is where I fall in. I'm the slim type, I've grown to love the slimness but sometimes (not always bro) I wish I have chubby flesh hahaha. You shouldn't blame me, it's natural. This is has made many people to change their figure. The thin want to be thick and then thick want to be think. In this part of the world, Nigeria, ladies want to be slim whatsoever. I don't know whether it's the same in your country. And the funny part is that, most of them don't Want to go into dieting or work out, they end up using drugs. God help us. But why would they want to be thin? Slim guys goes with chubby ladies, so the race is still balanced. Hahah.

What do you think about uncontentment?

In one way or the other, we are all victims of uncontentment. We know the it's not good but we can't help it. Though uncontentment pushes us to achieve unmatchable results if well controlled but if not well handled the end result Is always regretting.

Uncontentment runs in us, we can't completely avoid it but we have to power to control it. God created us to be responsible for our choices, make the right choice.

Thanks for taking your time to read and feel free to drop your comments.

I'm not satisfied with what I have right now but I'm still grateful, that's the difference. According to economics, human wants is insatiable, which means we can never be satisfied and it's normal
