It is common thing for people to not be satisfied by what they have or the feeling of getting more sates. But it is also remarkable that people take time to challenge such thing write book that can help understand life and live simply. To achieve god or understanding of superior power is the aim.

The Contentment Dilemma is a book that tries to help the reader realize why they can feel not satisfied in their lives and tries to use spirituality to achieve the opposite. I love that the author is not simply defending is biases, but being analytical about everything. Thanks for sharing that in your review!!

It can be a challenge for the majority to be content with what they have. There will always be that feeling of wanting more, which is a dangerous one. I find the book to have great insights about the importance of gratitude and learning to appreciate what we already possess. I am not sure if I will read the book because of some personal reasons, but I will add it to my shelf in case I change my mind in the future.

This book seems to communicate the fact that satisfaction and fulfillment does not come from material things. I like that the be can be read by even non-Christians even though it has a Christian foundation.

Many today are finding it a challenge to be content with what they have in a society that constantly promotes consumerism and comparison. I find the book to be timely because it seems to offers some valuable perspectives on finding contentment in a world that often encourages us to always want more. I believe it could be a helpful read for anyone looking to cultivate a sense of gratitude and fulfillment in their lives.

While I am curious about book on contentment and I agree that having it all doesn't equal happiness, I am not interested in the Christian solution. Seems like a good book for those that are.
