The sound of discontent � wanting something other than what we are given. Are we never happy with what we have?

Discontent

I think life is full of happy and sad times. Not sure if we are ever totally content here on earth. There are things in my life that I'm happy about and things in my life that I can't change, but struggle to be content with. But, through God all things are possible! All we can do is pray and look to Him for the answers.

Hello freeatlast,
Thanks for posting.
Life is definately full of both happy and hard times.We have to choose how we feel about all of them. I think there are many things that cause us to desire someting better - and that will be in heaven when all sad times are banished forever.

I think the trick is to be thankful for everything we have while we are here.
