Appreciate life itself even if it isn't perfect. Contentment isn't the fulfillment of what you wish for but it is the appreciation of what you have.

jralivio511 Don't be sad. Some people would like to have a silence and just everything to themselves and not bother other people but once you have started a frienship with good foundation. It will last forever and you don't even expect it.
