Contentment- thank you for this verbiage! I have been telling my friend that I prefer peace to happiness, but I think what I have been meaning to say, is I prefer the feeling of contentment as a more steady baseline. <3
Yes, that's exactly what contentment is, a baseline. It can have a peaceful feeling to it, but I think like happiness, sometimes feeling peaceful can come and go. The contentment, if it's there, can be there regardless of the other feelings riding on top.
