This episode examines contentment as distinct from happiness in its revelation being inward rather than outward. Yet, the two concepts are often conflated and this contributes to the elusiveness of contentment.
The more one chases, the more elusive contentment becomes. Living in a material-oriented culture that socializes individuals towards themes of progress, production, and perfection results in endless contingencies.
Hence, the price of contentment is everything and nothing. One may need to sacrifice all they were taught to believe about the meaning of life and success. On the other hand, if contentment is an inward discovery, then it is closer than anything can be.
(Music selection “Breathe” by Bing Satellites)
